Stakes are high for new head chef

By James Russell: Stakes are high for new head chef

January 26, 2016

Dina Spencer, Head Chef, Steak of the Art – Southampton

The head chef has been appointed at Southampton’s exciting new art venue and steak restaurant which is set to open later in February.

Dina Spencer (23) will now head up the kitchen at Steak of the Art, an exciting new venture that when open will cater for around 170 people serving steaks alongside an art gallery that will showcase and sell quality affordable art.

Inspired by the provenance of the food and the chance to be part of a fresh and exciting new concept, Dina, who is originally from Southampton and also has a love of art, now plans to make sure her passion to serve quality fresh food will make this new restaurant one of the best known in the city.

Dina said: “To be part of a totally unique and brand new restaurant is a very exciting prospect and I’m looking forward to showing the people of Southampton what a quality steak is all about.

“Daily specials will be seasonal and dependent on what is available from our suppliers which will include produce from Warson’s Farm in Devon, Warren’s butchers in Launceston and Fish for Thought in Cornwall.”

Located in Admirals Quay, Ocean Village, the 4,000 sq ft restaurant will be the third site to join the Steak of the Art brand. Split over two floors, 130 covers will be indoors while the remaining 40 will be outside.

Inspired by Southampton’s history with the sea, the interior will include a number of unique nautical-based areas such as the roped-themed private dining room.
