EPISODE 8 | JUST ADD BEER THE PODCAST
Our dear friend Henk talks of his random trip to Cornwall years ago and never looked back. We reminisce of our first #GrapeVsGrain night Treviskers and gives us a great Doom Bar Bread recipe from the Cookbook.
South African-born Henk is somewhat famous in Cornwall for his mouth-watering steaks and meat. Inheriting his passion and knowledge about beef from his cattle farming grandfather, his expertise in butchery and the science of beef ageing enables him to serve up some of the most succulent cuts in the West Country. Having developed a loyal following during his five years helming the kitchen at Trevose Golf and Country Club, he has now opened his own Trevisker’s Kitchen near Padstow. His mission is simple: to dish up fuss-free, quality food that echoes the coastal and country lifestyle of North Cornwall.
