Tom Kerridge

Chef

Having worked at various prestigious restaurants including Adlards and Rhodes in the Square, Kerridge opened the Hand and Flowers gastropub in Buckinghamshire with his wife Beth in 2005. In its first year it gained a Michelin star and in 2012 it became the first pub ever to receive two of them. In 2013 Kerridge knocked both Jamie Oliver and Bridget Jones from the top of the bestsellers list with his recipe book Proper Pub Food, and a follow-up, Tom’s Table, was published in 2015. Kerridge began cooking when he was at school: after his parents divorced, his mother worked multiple jobs and Kerridge would cook for his brother. He also fronts BBC2’s Food & Drink, one of the biggest cooking programmes on television.
