Pyne the Butcher - Somerset's Award Winning Master Butcher

French Visitor Behind the Counter

FRENCH VISITOR: We’ve welcomed a new face behind the counter in recent days: Frédéric Bilheux, who runs the local butcher’s in Ceaucé in Lower Normandy - North Petherton’s twin village. He’s just been over for a week’s break with his family and spent a couple of days working in the shops and getting to know English butchery techniques. His visit was a follow-up to an earlier one when our apprentice Anton Matthews spent a week working in Frédéric’s shop in November – and the experience for both has been so rewarding that this is likely to become a permanent arrangement.

"From the first day my family opened the doors, we have been committed to quality, service and craftsmanship - and we still work to these principles."

"We have a fantastic team: everyone slots together like pieces of a jigsaw and we all work well together. We really value the skills our staff bring to the business – and we wouldn’t want to lose a single one of them."
