Richard Turner heads up kitchen as Maribel joins city’s culinary scene

Acclaimed chef Richard Turner is back in the kitchen as head chef of Maribel, the latest addition to Birmingham’s thriving culinary scene. The restaurant, at the former site of Edmunds in Brindleyplace, welcomed some of the city’s top professionals at its corporate launch, hosted by general manager, Gilles Larroque, who previously held the same roles at Edmunds and Turners. Maribel’s menu features eight, six, four and a special lunchtime two-course option, and will change weekly to reflect the best seasonal produce.
