Birthdays to Remember

This month seems to be ...birthday month as far as the Loch Ness Clansman Hotel is concerned. In Cobbs restaurant the other night we had three people all celebrating their respective special days. If you dine on a Saturday night Willie and Stuart (The Murphy Brothers) our intrepid musicians will play ''that song'' for you as our staff take in the surprise birthday cake.
If you have forgotten to organise a cake we can usually drum up something as a token- always with the 'hotel birthday candle'.
Last month our head chef Davie West celebrated his wife's 40th with a trip to the famous Norton House in Edinburgh.
Our well known driver Brian celebrated his 65th, arriving to the hotel in a Stretch Hummer with champagne cocktails and bagpipers to pipe him into Cobbs Restaurant where he entertained the staff to celebratory drinks. Brian, we believe was still celebrating a week later as he said 'you're not 65 every day'.

Last night, we catered for a very special birthday for the world famous scientist Mr Adrian Shine who was celebrating his 60th birthday. Cobbs did all the catering and as well as a wonderful dressed salmon we had a large selection of both vegan and vegetarian food.
Our chefs cater for all tastes and it gives us both a great pleasure and a challenge to get it right. Adrian's party took place aboard the 'Jacobite Legend' with a lovely sunset cruise down Loch Ness with music supplied by 'The Clach' folk group and the guests were shown a special film of 'archive Adrian', created by his wife Marilyn and narrated by myself.

So, as I've said before - for that special occasion - especially that landmark birthday, contact us at the Loch Ness Clansman Hotel and we will make that special day even more special - happy birthday!
