from Nottingham News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

A former postman and private chef turns his Spanish tapas passion into a pub sensation at Nottinghamshire’s historic Horse & Plough, serving up authentic Catalan bites like pan con tomate and gambas pil pil—inspired by his travels and crafted with fresh, simple flair. After juggling mail routes and catering gigs for a year, Dav Nezhat (aka Don Francisco) made the leap to full-time cooking, finding his dream spot in a 19th-century pub that’s now buzzing with new customers thanks to his affordable, delicious menu. With help from his partner and pub staff, he’s mastering the commercial kitchen while planning a “work trip” to Spain in September—and Sundays? Expect experimental specials.
