Prue Leith

Prue Leith has been at the top of the British food scene for nearly sixty years.

She has seen huge success, not only as founder of the renowned Leith’s School of Food and Wine, but also as a caterer, restaurateur, teacher, TV cook, food journalist, cookery book author and novelist.

Her most recent book The Lost Son is now out. The third and final book in the trilogy about the Angelotti family- definitely worth a read.

She’s also been a leading figure in campaigns to improve food in schools, hospitals and in the home.
