FRANGLAIS – MEMBERS’ DINING MENU

I am a chef with many years of experience, both in France and the UK. Before working in the Macclesfield indoor market, I worked for PBC, who provided meals for Ashwell House in St Albans for three years.

If you’d like something that’s not on the menu, please let me know as I’m flexible and open to suggestions. My food is influenced by many different culinary styles from all over the world, but I specialise in giving traditional English dishes a French twist.

Once you have chosen your meal options please place your order directly with the Hall Steward via email at
