Top chef Adam Handling MBE expands his empire to The Headland Hotel in Newquay,

Seen before service beigins, the front of house staff at Adam’s new Ugly Butterfly 2, partake in a group mission meeting.
Undoubtably this new venture Ugly butterfly 2, will in due course be chasing a Michelin star rating
How one obtains a Michelin star rating is complex, and encompases all aspects of the restaurant experience, including staff, ethics, timing, as well as food ingredients, quality, and seasonality.
At its core, a meal depends on two things: incredible ingredients and outstanding technique.
Michelin Inspectors look for the use of locally grown, in-season ingredients that reflect both the restaurant’s mission and where it’s situated geographically. Adam has a no food waste ethos from his time in Japan.
The Michelin team also takes note of a few other factors during the visit and assessment process. One such consideration is the quality of the restaurant’s staff. As the Michelin Guide puts it, “Michelin Stars may be awarded solely for the quality of the cooking, but restaurants are nothing without their people.” A true fine dining relies just as much on the people facilitating the food as on the cuisine itself.Inspectors aren’t looking for bargains.

Other considerations- This is more about whether diners are getting what they paid for. Two memorable restaurants that are otherwise rated similarly may ultimately receive different Star levels if the Inspector feels that the quality isn’t on par with the pricing.
* Is there a wow factor?
* Do ingredients, quality, and technique match dish price?
* Is there the right ambience?
* Does the service staff provide the right level of attentiveness to match the expectations given by the concept and menu?

The Ugly Butterfly is currently offering a set price tasting menu of a four course with choice of dishes for £120, or £100 for three courses.

Will it in due course get a Michelin star rating?, time will tell.
