Milton Keynes restaurant celebrates first birthday with The Buckinghamshire Foodie Award!

Jonathan Todd, owner of The Plough in Wavendon, had a second reason to celebrate at his restaurant during a black tie dinner for the restaurant’s first birthday celebrations on Wednesday 16th July.

The Plough celebrates One Year

Restaurant Guide publisher, Paul Allen, from The Foodie Square Guide, awarded The Plough Wavendon as ‘Buckinghamshire Restaurant of the Year 2008’.
The annual award – in its sixth year – was bestowed upon the restaurant as voted for by the readers of The Foodie Square Guide.

Paul Allen commented: ‘The restaurants we feature in The Foodie Square Guide are recommended to us by our readers. Nominations are received from the readers and restaurant-goers – across Buckinghamshire and beyond - throughout the year and the annual ‘Restaurant of the Year’ award is announced in July.’
‘We are extremely pleased’ he comments further ‘to see The Plough Wavendon achieve this in their first year of trading. We take into account all of our customer comments and feedback and this is used to determine the winner of the award. Jon Todd, Grant and his remarkable team have done Buckinghamshire proud with their attention to detail from the food and wine, to the landscaped areas. Congratulations to them on becoming Buckinghamshire Restaurant of the Year 2008’.

Jonathan Todd, owner of The Plough Wavendon commented: ‘We are extremely proud of The Plough’s latest award. It is a testament to the commitment and ideals our restaurant offers the diners, here in the Milton Keynes countryside.
‘Grant is passionate about the food and service we deliver’ he comments further ‘His support for local businesses, and in turn the local economy allows him to further enhance his position as one of the region’s leading chefs: Something that I, as a successful Milton Keynes businessman, fully appreciate and support. He can justifiably be proud of this award – it is voted for by the public and is a glowing confirmation of their support in what he does.’

Chef Grant Hawthorne commented: ‘It’s been my ambition to become the best restaurant here at The Plough Wavendon. I have been given an amazing opportunity to do so and I’m extremely grateful for the support of Jon in helping me to achieve this.’
He comments further: ‘Our award-winning, fine dining restaurant in Milton Keynes is where my passion and demonstration of the art and craft of cooking is to be found. I’m humbled by the guest’s recognition and respectful of the honour that goes with this Foodie Award. What a wonderful first birthday surprise!’

Grant recently launched his 9-course summer Degustation menu, with the added option of having a flight of wines to match each course.
He comments: ‘The Plough’s complimentary luxury transport; 400 bin wine list and some of the UK’s Best Dishes are to be found a mere 7miles from Central Milton Keynes. The tasting menu simply adds to our fine dining experience.’

The Plough Wavendon is open daily from noon, and its menu includes an affordable business set lunch along with a pre-theatre dinner served between 5.30pm and 7.00pm.
