Colin McGurran, Chef Patron at the acclaimed Winteringham Fields restaurant, creates his special menu in the Beverley Racecourse restaurant kitchens.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Prepared by the racecourse chefs under Colin\u2019s expert direction, the new \u201cSignature\u201d menu for the early part of the season starts with mushroom ravioli with Jerusalem artichoke velout\u00e8 and mushroom foam, followed by a main course of roast duck breast, duck leg pave, beetroot puree and duck heart ragout. The dining delight is beautifully rounded off with poached Yorkshire rhubarb, ginger sponge, cr\u00e8me fraiche and rhubarb sorbet.<\/p>\n

Colin\u2019s special menu builds on a partnership between Beverley Racecourse, Winteringham Fields and the racecourse\u2019s exclusive catering partner, CGC Event Caterers, which began last season with a specially-created main course.<\/p>\n

Colin, Chef Patron at the Michelin-recommended restaurant in North Lincolnshire, said:<\/p>\n

We\u2019re proud to once again join forces with two great brands, Beverley Racecourse and CGC Event Caterers, and it\u2019s great to be back in the kitchen here.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re adding to the fabulous experience of dining at the racecourse with three new seasonal courses on the menu, so there\u2019s now a starter, main course and dessert to choose from.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re passionate about using seasonal produce so our signature dishes will vary through the spring and summer and regular diners can enjoy different Winteringham Fields culinary experiences through the season.<\/p>\n

Our dishes are quite traditional and familiar, but we\u2019ve given them a refined twist and we think discerning racegoers will love them.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Sally Iggulden, Chief Executive of Beverley Racecourse, said:<\/p>\n

We\u2019re delighted to welcome Colin back to Beverley for a second year.<\/p>\n

The partnership between Winteringham Fields, CGC Events and the racecourse is going from strength to strength and means our racegoers can now enjoy a full three-course menu created by one of the country\u2019s most admired chefs.<\/p>\n

Colin\u2019s signature dish last year was immensely popular and it\u2019s great to see him in our kitchen once more and offering even more choice to our diners.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s yet another example of how we\u2019re always striving to create a very special experience for racegoers.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Colin took over Winteringham Fields in 2005 and re-invented the restaurant as one of the country\u2019s leading fine dining venues. He is also a familiar figure on television cooking programmes, including Saturday Kitchen, Ramsay\u2019s Best Restaurant and the Great British Menu, emerging as a winner in both 2012 and 2014.<\/p>\n

Winteringham Fields is visited regularly by celebrities, the most recent being singer Gary Barlow who dined in the restaurant while staying in the venue\u2019s accommodation for four nights while in the region for shows at Hull City Hall during his UK-wide tour.<\/p>\n
