Butlins has teamed up with one ofBritain’s best-loved chefs, Brian Turner, to create a brand new dining experience for families at its resort in Bognor Regis.
Turner’s restaurant, opening this April, will be a showcase for classic British cooking with a generous sprinkling of Butlins-style fun twists.
Said Brian: “Brian Turner and Butlins go together like the very best sausage and mash.
“Butlins is all about families enjoying special times together and we look forward to a meal at Turner’s being one of the highlights of their stay.
“I love British food and I’m passionate about making sure it’s well sourced and beautifully cooked.”
Well known for his TV appearances on Ready Steady Cook and Saturday Kitchen, Brian Turner is at heart a restaurateur, with a Michelin star to his name.
Turner’s at Butlins is designed to be lively and informal – perfect for a special family meal.
The menu features dishes like shepherd’s pie with a Wensleydale cheese topping,Norfolkchicken, avocado and cherry tomato salad and marmalade bread and butter pudding.
Half-portions of the most child-friendly dishes will be available, so all the family can tuck-in together.
Said Brian: “One of the great things about a Butlins break is that families have time to sit down for proper family meals together. So we wanted to make sure that both children and adults can enjoy the same food.”
Personally selected by Brian, Turner’s head chef Nigel Davis comes with a glittering CV. His experience includes being head chef at the famous Ivy restaurant and roles at The Greenhouse restaurant and the St Quentin Brassiere.
Nigel remembers visiting Butlins as a six-year-old child and has more recently been visiting for breaks with his own young family.
Nigel said: “You often find that restaurants cater for either kids or adults but not both. We’re very much in both camps! We’ve worked hard to create great British meals with a Butlins
twist that the whole family will love.”
After Bognor Regis, Brian and Butlins are hoping to bring Turner’s to the other two resorts in Minehead and Skegness.
