    The devoted head chef at Stormont Lodge care home in Perthshire, Scotland has become an online sensation. This was after photos of his haute cuisine-inspired dishes went viral on the internet. Kevin Nairn, 42, is so well-loved by the elderly residents of Stormont Lodge and it’s easy to see why. You only need to see his mouthwatering dishes that look like something you would only see in fancy restaurants.

    Kevin wouldn’t have imagined that his culinary prowess would receive worldwide recognition. But right after his younger sister Yvonne shared photos of his dishes online, he finally earned the commendation he deserves. Yvonne also works in a nursing home. So, she always turns to her brother for some food ideas to cater for the needs of their elderly residents. When Kevin sent her photos of the dishes he made at the home, she thought of sharing them online for the world to see.

    After her post went viral, many people want to know more about Kevin. Although his culinary talent is good enough for Michelin-starred restaurants, Kevin is currently happy serving at the home. And the main reason why Yvonne shared her brother’s dishes online is to let people see the happiness that her brother brings to the elderly residents.

    “Kevin is overwhelmed by all the positive comments that everyone has left. We both hope that his ideas and recipes will inspire others to try out new things within the kitchen,” Yvonne said.

    Kevin has been a chef since 1995 and his first gig was at a hotel outside of his town. When he got married in 2005, he and his wife Heather went to New Zealand on a working visa for a year-long honeymoon. He worked as a chef for a retirement home while they were there. The devoted chef found this job very rewarding and he just loved seeing how his dishes put a smile on the residents’ faces. After a year, the couple had to return to Scotland. Coincidentally, the Stormont Lodge care home was in need for a head chef at that time.

    “The best part of working in care is the interaction with the residents,” he explained. “We plan the menus together and we even have tasting sessions which is great fun. The residents always look forward to their meals and it feels good to know that they have had a lovely home-cooked meal.”
