Damian Heads Belfast Kitchens
Hastings Hotels has appointed Damian Tumilty as the executive head chef of the Europa Hotel in Belfast, in addition to his existing role at the five-star Grand Central Hotel.
With over 25 years of culinary experience, he will lead the combined team of more than 50 kitchen staff across both properties.
Since the Grand Central Hotel opened in 2018, he has led its culinary teams and earned a strong reputation for delivering high-quality and imaginative dining experiences.
A passionate advocate for nurturing culinary talent, he has played a pivotal role in inspiring young chefs to pursue careers in the industry, with many beginning their journey in one of Hastings Hotels’ six properties.
Damian said: “Since joining Hastings Hotels over seven years ago, I have evolved as a chef and a person. This new appointment represents the next step in my career.”
Damian has also announced the appointment of two experienced head chefs to lead daily kitchen operations - Tom Mulcahy at the Grand Central and Stevie Bracken at the Europa.
