Chef of the Year

The Staff Canteen

TSC Chef of the year 2021 Roy Brett is the chef and owner of Edinburgh restaurant Ondine.

Roy’s career has seen him work in locations far and wide, starting out his career at the Caledonian Hotel before heading

to London to work with Mark Hix and Rick Stein. Ondine has enjoyed thirteen years of success under the chef’s stewardship, consistently staying at the top of Edinburgh's ever-changing food scene.

Small Contribution. Big Impact.

The Staff Canteen has always been more than a website—it’s a community, built by and for hospitality. We share the wins, the challenges, the graft, and the inspiration that keeps kitchens alive.

We believe in staying open to everyone, but creating this content takes real resources. If you’ve ever found value here—whether it’s a recipe, an interview, or a laugh when you needed it most—consider giving just £3 to keep it going.

 

A little from you keeps this space free for all. Let’s keep lifting the industry, together.
