An award-winning village pub has announced it has welcomed a new head chef into the kitchen.

The Queen's Head in Bramfield, near Halesworth, welcomed Scott Nathan in the new year, who's speciality is Pan-Asian cookery.

Mr Nathan was recently head chef at the award-winning EasyTiger in Beccles and before that, at Graze at the White Horse in Beccles.

The pub said: "His Swedish upbringing, paired with his classical French skills, Pan Asian knowledge and general love of all things food means you can expect some exciting, innovative dishes on the specials boards, alongside all the tried and tested pub classics.

"Outside of work, you'll find Scott playing the piano (he's an accomplished musician), spending time with his better half Lucy, building lego or perhaps enjoying a pint of Caramel Stout.

"Please join us in welcoming Scott to the helm and pop by to try his magnificent food."

Kate Wood, who owns the pub said: "We have raised almost £13,000 so far for our chosen charity, which is The Pear Tree Fund in Halesworth.

"Our new menu launched on Wednesday, and features a blend of French classics alongside some Pan Asian inspired dishes.

"Scott was a great fit for us, as we love the whole Pan Asian vibe, and of course having been Head Chef at the award-winning EasyTiger in Beccles, this style comes to him easily."
