Respected chef Christian Szurko has taken over the management of the Walnut Club brand in Sheffield and Hathersage.
As operations director, Christian has drafted in new blood in the kitchens and front-of-house at the Walnut Club Live on Ecclesall Road and the Walnut Club Brasserie in Hathersage.
The chef’s CV includes Langan’s Brasserie and The Ivy in London and Sheffield’s Blue Room Brasserie. Latterly he has been running Hillsborough and Sharrowvale fishmonger Manns with brother and fellow chef Danny. While continuing to operate Manns, the brothers have now returned to the kitchen and plan to revitalise the two Walnut Club outlets.
“They are both high-quality venues, but it’s a very competitive market out there. We have completely revised the menus to offer affordable classic food, with more specials,” said Christian. Choices include two courses for £11.95 or three for £16.95, with Sunday roasts for £9.95. New lunchtime and evening menus are to be introduced at Hathersage by the end of the month, continuing the policy of providing good food at very keen prices.
“People who think about going to the pub for value should give us a try – we believe we’re even more competitive,” he added.
Managing the Ecclesall Road venue is Chris Barradale, brother of Arctic Monkeys manager Geoff, with Craig Macfarlane as front-of-house manager at Hathersage. Whilst in the kitchen, the Szurkos are joined by chefs Iklat Hussain, formerly of Marco@Milano’s, and Richard Butler from Loch Fyne.
The new team want customers to know they can rely on both the Walnut Club venues for good food and service and are keen to get as much feedback as possible.
