However, there is a feast of Burns’ songs and poems on the menu, served up by three ‘Masterchefs’ of music.
A spokesperson for Ayr Phoenix Folk Club said: “Ken O’Hara is a musician, artist, and professional actor. He is a regular on the Ayrshire music circuit and a popular Burns performer.
“In recent years, Ken has toured Ayrshire with his one-man shows and is well known for his performance of Tam o’Shanter and other Burns’ works.”
