We’ve been looking into our
wonderful local area and appreciating some of the fine food and drinks that are
made in our counties of Bristol/Somerset, as that is where the Nisbets HQ is
based (in Avonmouth). Here’s what we’ve found:
Glastonbury
Ales: With inviting and
local-themed names such as Mystery Tor and Golden Chalice, Glastonbury Ales are
on a crusade to make real beer available to all.
Rich's
Farmhouse Cider: Being produced in
Watchfield for over 50 years, Riches Farmhouse Cider is still produced in the
traditional way.
Yeo
Valley: Yoghurt making behemoth
Yeo Valley have been producing award-winning dairy products out of Somerset
since 1961.
In
our first ‘Ideal Skillset’ post we are looking at what it means and what it
takes to be a Chef.
Role & Responsibilities
Your
role will reach far and wide throughout the entire establishment and you can
often be expected to do some of the following; create menus, manage employees,
food prep and cooking, order supplies, conduct training and keep records.
Abilities
You
need to be able to communicate at all levels, be able to lead a team, be
approachable, flexible, creative and confident and you also will need some
health & safety/food safety knowledge. You will be able to work under
pressure, have a real passion for food and be able to motivate others.
Here
at Nisbets we offer a full range of product personalization options when you
are ordering certain products from our range such as chefs clothing and knives.
You
can have lettering, flags or logos embroidered onto most of our clothing, and
you can have up to 3 initials engraved onto your chefs knives.
We have another fabulous
Demo Day planned at our Birmingham store on Bristol Street! This time we will
be demonstrating some of the Dynamic range of blenders, whisks and cutters. Much like our past Demo Days we will have tasty snacks for you to try, all made using the products being demoed.
Our Brand Manager will also be available to offer advice and answer any questions you may have.
