Such a privilege to have been invited back as a VIP guest for Sandy Park’s 20th Anniversary Gala Dinner. Having spent over 5 years in this kitchen, stepping back on the line with Head Chef Craig Beacham to prep and plate up 400 plus five-course meals felt just like going back in time. Proud to have been a part of this milestone!

Congratulations Sandy Park 👏🍾
