The chef behind it all

Dean
Banks.

Dean started cooking at 15 in Arbroath, trained at Rick Stein's Seafood Restaurant and cooked across more than 40 countries before reaching the final of MasterChef: The Professionals in 2018. Haar in St Andrews came first. The rest of the family grew from there.
