The Roux Scholarship in association with Global knives from Grunwerg, the most prestigious culinary award within the UK announces its winner: Kenneth Culhane.
The award ceremony, held at London’s Mandarin Hotel at the end of March, will allow the winner to train at a restaurant of his choice anywhere in the world – along with £1000 worth of Global knives. Not only will Kenneth receive the knives, all the scholars will get a set to aid their cooking in the future.
Rachel Grunwerg, Director of Sales and Marketing commented: “The Roux Scholarship aids and nourishes the development of chef’s, just like what we try to achieve at Grunwerg. “The teaching of young chefs about knife skills is a crucial area – and with a new set of Global knives and our kitchen knife handbook, Kenneth is set up for life. Grunwerg wish him a long and prosperous future”.
The Roux Scholarship judges: The Roux family (Michel, Albert, Alain and Michel Jnr), Brian Turner, David Nicholls, Gary Rhodes, Heston Blumenthal, Andrew Fairlie and James Martin, all receive one of a kind Global knives, engraved with “The Roux Scholarship Judge 2010”. James Martin personalised his blade by asking all the judges to sign it!
