Testimonials

“I’ve worked with Tim on several occasions to create exceptional dining experiences for discerning clients. Every time he has produced a stunning menu that celebrates local, seasonal produce, with a remarkable lightness of touch.

It’s always a pleasure to work with him, and I know my clients will be served the very best that Speyside has to offer.”

Georgia Porteous
Private Client Manager, Edrington UK

“Tim has catered for and hosted a huge number of groups here at Innes House over the past five years. He is a consummate professional and his passion for home-grown and locally sourced produce is second to none.

Nothing phases him, even when plans change at the last minute, and he has a natural way with clients from all over the world that immediately puts them at ease.

His cooking is innovative, generous and deeply considered — you can taste the care that has gone into both the sourcing and the cooking. Once you’ve eaten his food, you won’t want anyone else.”

“Tim is a gift to the Highlands. His cooking is original and genuinely delicious, with thoughtful presentation that never feels overdone.

He cares deeply about provenance and is wonderfully generous with his home-grown produce. He’s a pleasure to have around — organised, relaxed and leaving the kitchen immaculate.

All done with a smile and the sense that nothing is too much trouble.”
