'
What do you do when you tire of long hours in a busy kitchen,
but do not want to leave the local food community that has grown
up around you? This was the dilemma facing Nick Barclay when he
decided that he wanted to spend more time with his young family
and less time standing over a hot stove.After six successful,
award-winning years at the Barclay House Hotel in Looe, Nick was
ready to swap the 24/7 hotel and restaurant lifestyle for "new
ventures and challenges".
It was, he says, a
question of quitting while still ahead. For the food and drink
producers of South East Cornwall, the prospect of losing one of
their champions must have been devastating - since arriving in
the county Nick has been at the forefront of the change to serve
the best local produce. Not only has he talked the talk, unlike
many others he genuinely walked the walk. They need not have
worried.' Read the full article
