From London’s Finest to Bournemouth Pier: Chef Dan Wilby to Transform Dining with Exclusive French Experience!
A new chapter is beginning at Key West Coastal Restaurant on Bournemouth Pier as Adventure Attractions, the pier operator, announces the appointment of Executive Chef Dan Wilby, bringing serious culinary pedigree and a fresh vision to one of the South Coast’s most unique dining destinations.
Having worked alongside some of the UK’s most respected chefs, including Tom Kerridge, Michel Roux Jr. and more recently Angela Hartnett, Dan arrives with a wealth of experience from leading London kitchens. His career has also seen him cook for high-profile names such as Charli XCX, Nicki Minaj, Peter Kay and Paloma Faith, adding a touch of star quality to his already impressive résumé.
Now at the helm at the end of Bournemouth Pier, Dan is focused on refining the food offer, elevating quality and introducing a series of curated dining experiences designed to match the restaurant’s spectacular coastal setting.
Dan said, “You don’t get many kitchens with a view like this. Cooking at the end of Bournemouth Pier is pretty special, so the food needs to rise to that occasion, modern coastal dishes, great British favourites and ingredients that really speak for themselves.”
The first of these new experiences will launch this May with La Table Française: A Taste of France on Saturday 16th May, an elegant evening of French-inspired dining by the sea.
Guests will enjoy a refined three-course menu created exclusively by the Executive Chef, celebrating classic French techniques with a contemporary coastal twist. The evening will be accompanied by live music from French singer Muriel, creating an atmospheric backdrop as the sun sets across the bay.
The experience includes a three-course set menu and live performance, with doors opening from 7pm, priced at £59.50 per person.
With limited tables available, early booking is advised. https://lnkd.in/ej3Rcr6J. hashtagBournemouth hashtagDorset hashtagDining
