Three of the region's biggest culinary stars are heading to The Savvy Fox
The Savvy Fox at Hotel Wrexham is celebrating its four-star status with a series of intimate dining evenings featuring three of the region's biggest culinary stars, Ellis Barrie, Felix Shore and Paul Askew.
Three of the region's biggest cookery stars are heading to The Savvy Fox at Hotel Wrexham - and will serve up a night of exceptional food and culinary insight.
Ellis Barrie, Felix Shore and Paul Askew will each take over the kitchen this Autumn for a series of intimate dining evenings built around bold, produce-led menus.
Diners will get the chance to feast on an incredible selection of dishes individually designed for the evening by the award-winning chefs.
The events come as the venue celebrates securing four-star status in a recent Visit Wales inspection.
The Savvy Fox at Hotel Wrexham is operated by SAVVY Collective, who have devised the Chef Takeover Series. It will see each chef create an exclusive four-course tasting menu, showcasing the ingredients, techniques and celebrate the stories that define their cooking.
The series opens on Friday 2 October with Ellis Barrie, co-founder of The Marram Grass on Anglesey and a two-time Great British Menu contestant, who reached the national finals in both 2017 and 2018.
Then on Friday 23 October, Felix Shore will take over the kitchen. Shore honed his craft at Kontrast in Oslo and three-Michelin-starred Frantzén in Stockholm before opening his own Cheshire restaurant, Restaurant 209.
The series then concludes on Friday 30 October with Paul Askew, chef-patron of The Art School in Liverpool. The restaurant is Michelin Recommended and holds two AA Rosettes.
Each Takeover evening begins at 7pm and includes a welcome drink, an exclusive four-course tasting menu created by the visiting chef, and a Q&A session giving guests the chance to hear straight from the chef about the inspiration, ideas and produce behind each dish.
Steven Hesketh, co-owner of The Savvy Fox, said: “Ellis, Felix and Paul are three of the most exciting and talented chefs in the Northwest currently and getting each of them into our kitchen for one night is fantastic for the venue and Wrexham. It’s a great opportunity to meet with the chefs, ask them anything, and enjoy a menu that they’ve created for that one night only.
“When SAVVY Collective partnered with Hotel Wrexham, the ambition was never simply to sell bedrooms. It was to build a thriving social destination, somewhere food, hospitality and events gave local people and visitors genuine reasons to keep coming back. The Chef Takeover Series is that ambition on a plate, bringing a genuine foodie programme and some of the region's best culinary talent to Wrexham, and proving diners no longer need to travel to Liverpool, Manchester or Chester for an exceptional night out."
Tickets are £85 per person, with places limited for each date.
