Hand dived Orkney scallop - elderflower - nasturtium - lime - green strawberry. โ€ข Dish created by the legend @keironstevens โ€ข We serve the scallop raw and cooked - the texture and flavour contrast blows my mind - something that works so well with this dish. โ€ข #adamsrestaurant

@GBMofficial @tom_chef1 @BBCiPlayer @BrokeDinner @Marianne_Lumb @BatemanThom For me this episode summed up the people of the Midlands. The chefs were industrious and calm and got on with their jobs with skill and ingenuity. No excessive mateiness or melodrama just friendly, quiet industry and achievement. Well done chefs!
