Reviews
Prue Leith 'An accurate, and sometimes very funny, account of the trials of a young food teacher in the 70's. A light hearted testament to the importance of food, education, and a sizzling expose of the blindness of the powers that be.'
Orlando Murrin President of the Guild of Food Writers 'This is a charming book, and I love its wry, nostalgic tone. Underneath that, there is a message - that food teaching really matters, and it's sad that the education system doesn't seem to agree.'
