Hub International

We were delighted to have been invited to the Royal Academy of Culinary Arts Annual Awards of Excellence Service Final Scotland at the Trump Turnberry Hotel. It was a privilege to witness some of the finest emerging talent in Scotland’s fine dining front-of-house scene.

It was particularly special to see so many outstanding hospitality ambassadors gathered in one room, whether judging, mentoring or serving. The professionalism, passion, and unwavering dedication to their craft were truly inspiring and deserve to be commended.

The future of Scottish hospitality is undoubtedly in very capable hands, Good luck for the final!

Ashton School you have stolen our hearts ♥️

As we celebrate the end of a school year and some remarkable progress across the school’s partnership, we are privileged to have worked with such an inspiring group of young people, their families and school team who we have gotten to know each week.

We are looking forward to next term already and can’t wait to see where the new skills and confidence can take these bright young people next.

Supporting young people with complex additional support needs has been an important step in our journey to develop our own skills & knowledge in culinary education.

We’re back! …

Slightly different view, same great training crew.

To everyone that helped us with temporary venues over this last 3 months, thank you 🙏 the coffee is forever on us 🤎

North Ayrshire’s school dinners are levelling up!

Great to be back for our 3rd Cookery accelerator. Upskilling an already dedicated and passionate team to elevate while they create, focus on quality while making tighter budgets go further and a chance to get together across the region to grown their own connections & confidence. Another great project!

Always great catching up with our friends, and Hospitality Ambassadors at Marr Hall Golf & Spa Resort with Hotel School Scotland pupils this week.

Chef Szilard looked after the students with some of his delicious madeleins and sweet treats, and Concierge Alan gave us the warmest welcome as always.

It was also a pleasure to see one of our Renfrewshire employability trainees from last year, busy working and loving her new career at the hotel!

It safe to say our trainees we even more inspired and motivated to learn the art of hospitality after this fabulous visit and see the success stories in real life!
