Old Palace in Lincoln appoints Paul Newton head chef

A new head chef with 24 years of experience is now creating the menus at the Old Palace in Lincoln. Paul Newton previously spent five years heading up the kitchen at the White Hart hotel in the Bailgate, and more recently at the Lawn where he was head chef for four years. As well as creating new function and room service menus, Newton aims to put an emphasis on ingredients by using local suppliers and by being sympathetic to the taste and textures of produce.
