Stefan Brodin, Senior Sous Chef

Stefan's the first in his family to become a chef but his success did inspire his big brother to follow in his footsteps.  He's come a long way since qualifying - literally, having earned his chef's whites at college in Hallsberg, central Sweden, before heading off to London to start a new life. Before long, he landed a job working for the great Richard Corrigan at The English Garden and then in another fine kitchen at The Wolseley in Piccadilly. His travels even took him to the grand opening of the Eurostar terminal and fine-dining for city lawyers at Eversheds, all the time notching up great experience. Moving to leafy Hertfordshire in search of a slightly less frenetic way of life, Stefan's love of fresh seasonal food's already shining through. It's going to be a true smorgasbord. 

The Team,

We've recruited a great bunch of people in the kitchen, behind the bar and in the restaurant, but we're always looking for new talent. If you're interested, check out our vacancies
For every Caesar salad we sell, we will be making a 25p contribution to healthy eating activities in a local primary school.

Why Caesar salad? Well, it’s not the lowest calorie dish, but we think you’ll love it, so it met our fundraising criteria for a best-seller that will be on the menu all year round.
 

We will be changing our menus with the seasons and we’re hard line on animal welfare. All our chicken, eggs and pork are free-range. We do not use foie gras. Our Aberdeenshire beef is Scotch Beef Club accredited and our chefs regularly visit the farmers. We buy British wherever we can to keep food miles down, and, where we need to import ingredients, we minimise air-freight. Provenance is key to serving trustworthy food. Our coffee is ethically sourced from Guatemala (by Union Coffee Roasters, recently voted No. 1 ethical coffee company) and the bespoke furniture we commission is made from European oak and iroko timber from sustainable forests. We have also worked with the Carbon Trust to ensure that The Old Mill operates as energy efficiently as possible.
