SCOTLAND'S chef of the year has been called in to help promote the fresh local produce that is available across the country in a new online video.

Cafe St Honor executive chef Neil Forbes was recruited by national tourism agency VisitScotland to star in the video, which will have a potential audience of up to 18 million people.

Manuela Calchini, regional director for VisitScotland, said: "Neil is a fantastic ambassador for Scotland's food and drink and, through the online film, is providing inspiration to many potential visitors."
