'Is a great pioneer and one of the unsung heroes of the organic movement. He has been serving up food which is not only delicious but local, organic and sustainable since 1988, long before these issues became fashionable.'
- Patrick Holden, Soil Association
Barny in the
Cookery School
It has been Barny's life ambition to create a great restaurant which is not only committed to local, seasonal and organic principles but which is entirely responsible for the way in which the business operates and functions. Bordeaux Quay is the realisation of a life time's worth of thinking. Barny has trained over forty chefs over the years, all of whom now practice what he preaches.
In May 2006, he was awarded The Glenfiddich Independent Spirit Award, that recognises a piece of work, individual or campaign making an outstanding contribution towards widening the understanding and appreciation of food and drink in Britain.
