EMILY WATKINS TO LEAVE KINGHAM PLOUGH

Emily Watkins has announced today that she and husband Miles Lampson will leave the Kingham Plough after 12 years. 

Watkins' journey as a chef began in the kitchens of Ristorante Beccofino in Florence before moving to work for Heston Blumenthal at The Fat Duck in Bray in 2002 and then to the Kingham Plough in 2007. 

In her time at the Kingham Plough, Emily has featured on The Hairy Bikers, Tom Kerridge's Proper Pub Food as well as winning BBC's Great British Menu in 2014 with her fish course, going onto cook for war veterans at St Paul’s Cathedral in a banquet commemorating the 70th anniversary of the D-Day landings.

So after 12 incredibly happy years at The Kingham Plough, Miles and I are moving on. We have had an incredible time and share so many incredible memories, from the exciting opening and achieving so many amazing accolades over the years, we have celebrated our wedding there, had 4 babies and made great friends. We want to say a huge thank you to the staff, customers, our families and suppliers, we wouldn’t have got anywhere without you. We wish Matt and Katie - the new owners, the very best of luck and many happy years ahead. We look forward to watching the Kingham Plough move forward to the next chapter of its life. #thekinghamplough #top50gastropubs #cotswolds #tolifeindorset #thankyouall #farewell
