Great British Menu: Series 16: North West Judging

North West Judging

BBC Two - Great British Menu, Series 16, North West Judging

It’s judges’ day, and only one chef can go through to represent the North West of England.

Who will be judged the winner of the North West of England with delicious dishes celebrating invention? The judges, including one of Britain’s best loved designers, must decide.

Today, the two highest-scoring chefs from the North West of go head-to-head cooking their entire six-course menus. But will they take on board their veteran’s advice as they serve the panel of judges and this week’s guest judge, one of Britain’s most famous designers? 

The chefs need to impress the formidable judges - food writer Matthew Fort, restaurateur Oliver Peyton and broadcaster and food creative Rachel Khoo. Today’s guest judge is Wayne Hemingway MBE, designer and vegetarian co-founder of fashion brand ‘Red or Dead’ and now an advisor to House of Commons Select Committee on coastal regeneration.  How will he judge our chefs’ creations celebrating British science, design and innovation? 

Inspiration for these delectable dishes includes the Blackburn invention of Vimto and a revolutionary vegetarian vicar from Salford.
