About Potage de la Vie
My Story
For many years, friends and family have been encouraging me to put to paper my life story - one of adventure, triumphs and disasters, international cuisine (including cooking for everyone from the late Queen to the homeless), roaming North America and Europe, particularly France and Italy along the way finding out about people, places, cuisines and most of all myself!
This is my story!
Potage de la Vie
This is my book. Through food, people and places, I have tried to capture my journey. It has taken me 15 years to write but during that time I have actually had two of the best jobs in the world - one involved cooking for the homeless - the other for a classical music symposium in Cornwall. These and many others made me the person I am, although I knew from an early age that I had a different connection with people irrespective of their background or circumstances.
