Orry is hoping to secure a place at The Great British Menu Banquet at St George’s Hall in Liverpool. This year’s competition theme is British movies and filmmakers.

Orry’s dishes take inspiration from films and actors such as Alan Cumming as the Nightcrawler in X2, Scottish independent film Limbo, Kelly Macdonald as Merida in Brave and Robbie Coltrane as Hagrid in Harry Potter. 

In February, Orry won the Scottish heats of Great British Menu after impressing the panel of judges with his movie-inspired creations, including Michelin-starred chef Tom Kerridge and former Great British Menu champion of champions Lorna McNee.  

Orry said: “I’m really proud to have earned my place in finals week on Great British Menu and to be representing Scotland on national TV. The British movies and filmmakers theme is a great way to get creative and show off my culinary skills, so I’m hoping my journey will continue to the grand final banquet in Liverpool.”

Scotland’s former National Chef of the Year is also gearing up to open his first independent restaurant in Royal Deeside this summer.
