Scran season 9: Celebrating 25 years of Amber restaurant with father and son chefs, Michael and David Neave
On this episode of Scran I chat to David and Michael Neave - the father and son duo who have played more than an important part in the success of Amber restaurant.
Amber celebrates 25 years in business this year. Located in the Scottish Whisky Experience it was one of the first visitor attractions to launch a restaurant and since then has gone from strength to strength.
David founded the restaurant and when Michael was young he would come to visit his father at work where his fascination for cooking began.
I speak to them both about the significant family history that is tied up in their work. About how the restaurant was a forerunner of many trends we see in food and drink today and about their passion for good food.
To celebrate 25 years in business Michael developed an anniversary menu which became a project many of the longstanding team got involved in. Each dish was chosen for the memories it carries of the suppliers, the team, and the guests and all those who shaped the restaurant over 25 years.
