Nigel Slater
Famously describing himself as ‘a cook who writes’, Nigel Slater is one of Britain’s best-loved food writers and presenters. A columnist for the Observer for 26 years, he made his name sharing his passion for simple, home cooking in early, word-of-mouth bestselling books including Real Fast Food, Real Fast Puddings, The 30-Minute Cook, Real Good Food, Real Cooking and Real Food.
Slater became more widely known in the 1990’s and 2000’s hosting the Channel 4 television series Nigel Slater's Real Food Show and the BBC series A Taste of My Life and Simple Suppers and publishing cookery books including Appetite, Thirst and The Kitchen Diaries. In 2004 he published the widely acclaimed, award-winning biography, Toast, which was later adapted into a popular television series.
His other works include Tender, Volume One, Tender, Volume Two, The Kitchen Diaries II, eat: The Little Book of Fast Food, A Year of Good Eating: The Kitchen Diaries III and The Christmas Chronicles.
From the beloved chef, food writer and author of Toast comes a beautifully presented volume of reflections, meditations and memories on life in the kitchen, garden and on the move.
Marking twenty years since the publication of a seminal slice of food writing, Slater's engrossing memoir spawned a legion of imitators and is now available with an updated forward by Elizabeth Day and an afterword from the author himself.
