Signature Duck Scotch Egg Recipe by Tony Jardella, from The Duck Hook

About the Chef

Antony Jardella “Chef Tony” is the culinary lead behind recently-launched restaurants Hillhouse Brasserie and The Duck Hook, which opened in October/December under JRG Dubai – the home-grown restaurant management company and part of Dubai Holding. As Head Chef at both of the Dubai Hills Golf Club restaurants, Chef Tony worked closely with JRG Dubai Group Executive Chef Ben Tobitt during the pre-opening to develop the distinct menus ahead of each launch. He now heads up the dedicated kitchen teams to maintain quality and continually enhance the menu offerings.

With more than 12 years’ kitchen experience, Chef Tony began his career as Trainee Chef at the Metropolitan Police Club, North London, following the completion of his City and Guilds qualifications in catering and hospitality. Following six years in the UK capital, he relocated to Cyprus, working across luxury hotels, entertainment venues and restaurant groups throughout the Mediterranean island. Chef Tony joined JRG Dubai in 2014 as Sous Chef at the award-winning Rivington Grill, where he was responsible for supervising various aspects of the kitchen and team. He then progressed to Chef de Cuisine at the iconic Perry & Blackwelder’ Original Smokehouse before being tasked with JRG Dubai’s latest concepts.
