Star makes Simon’s restaurant the best in town

One, two or even three Michelin stars are given to restaurants with exceptionally good food, and chef Simon Jones has just won one for his restaurant, The Tiger. It is the first time that a restaurant in Moreton has got a Michelin star and Simon is delighted. He is very proud of it, and he is having a party for friends, family and customers. Tm so pleased with the star,’ Simon says. ‘It shows how much we have improved in the past ten years since we started the business.’

Michelin stars are not easy to win and Simon hopes it will help his business. The Tiger is a fish and seafood restaurant, which makes the star even more special. The restaurant is over 80 kilometres from the sea, so the fish and seafood have to travel a long way by train every day.

Simon’s wife, Angela, has been at the restaurant since its beginning. She and Simon met when she got a job doing the washing-up. Five years ago, she left the kitchen and now she takes bookings and shows customers to their tables.

‘It’s great news, and not only for us!’ Angela says. ‘Hopefully, the Michelin star will bring a lot of new visitors into the area. If our business grows, there will be more jobs in the town for local people and they won’t have to leave to find work.’

Simon and Angela play an active part in local life, visiting schools to share their business experience and offering work experience to school children.

The Tiger:

• is a place where stars like to eat.

• was the first restaurant in Moreton.

• is not a new restaurant.
