Five of Scotland’s most acclaimed chefs – including Michelin-starred Graham Cheevers and Peter McKenna – have come together to tackle food poverty with a new cultural event at the end of this month, with 100% of profits from tickets and accommodation going towards a vital food bank in Glasgow

Mhor Food For Folk will unite Michelin-starred chef Graeme Cheevers with multi-award-winning chefs Peter McKenna (The Gannet), Tom Lewis (Mhor), Jay Ward (Partick Duck Club), and David Scott (Crabshakk). Together, they will craft an exclusive feasting menu, with each chef creating one course for this unforgettable dining experience set against the stunning backdrop of the Scottish Highlands.

The lochside Monachyle Mhor

Taking place on the Mhor Estate at the lochside Monachyle Mhor Hotel on Sunday, 26th January 2025, this exciting experience will direct all proceeds to the Drumchapel Food Bank, a lifeline for individuals and families facing food insecurity in Glasgow. 

The unique event will also feature live entertainment by artist Ryan Hannigan and his band Star Wheel Press, alongside a curated programme of guest interviews, poetry, tastings, and workshops. Award-winning wines from Gusbourne Estate will complement the dining experience.

Scottish chef Paul McKenna

A culinary mission for change, Mhor Food For Folk is founded on the belief that everyone deserves access to healthy, nourishing food. In addition to ticket proceeds, 100% of funds from culinary experiences and accommodation will go directly to Drumchapel Food Bank. 

Speaking about the initiative, chef Peter McKenna from the Gannet said: “Food is a universal connector, and we believe it should never be out of reach for anyone. This event is our collective way of giving back and ensuring that the most vulnerable in our community have the support they need.”
