Theo Randall is this country’s best non-Italian Italian chef. His feel and instinct for ingredients is unrivalled...”-Tony Turnbull, The Times Internationally renowned chef Theo Randall opened his first multi award-winning restaurant, Theo Randall at The Inter Continental, to huge critical acclaim and success in 2006 and hasn’t looked back since. The restaurant has attracted high praise with critic Jay Rayner declaring it ‘the best meal I have had all year’, and was awarded London Restaurant Awards Best Italian Restaurant of The Year, Harden’s Guide 2013 Best Italian/Mediterranean over £50, the highest ranked Italian on The Sunday Times Food List 2013, and his ‘Cappelletti di Vitello’ won Tatler Restaurant Awards - Best Restaurant Dish 2014. His first Asian venture, Theo Mio, opened at The Intercontinental Bangkok in 2015. In 2016 he launched casual dining concept Theo’s Simple Italianin Kensington, with a second restaurant due to open at Aldgate Place in 2017. Theo was formerly Head Chef and Partner at The River Café, which was awarded its first Michelin Starunder his direction, with praise from major critics who described it as 'a place of pilgrimage' which has 'changed Britain's restaurant culture for good.'

Michelin-starred chef, Theo Randall talking Italien...as an alternative to turkey this Christmas

My guest today is Theo Randall. It’s safe to say that Theo is one of the nation's most beloved chefs. Inspired by the food of his childhood trips to Italy, Theo has developed a life-long passion for Italian food. He spent 17 years at The River Café and was Head Chef when they won their Michelin star. In 2006 he left to set up his own eponymous restaurant at the Intercontinental Hotel in London to great critical acclaim. An interview online states: “In a world full of swagger, quick tempers and massive egos, Chef Theo Randall, is a breath of fresh air.” We recorded today’s episode in Theo’s restaurant at the Intercontinental in London where they were preparing for a busy days service. Theo is a legend in the food world and I think there’s always a slight assumption that seriously successful people might not be that nice – but if that is how the theory goes Theo completely proved that wrong. Thank you for downloading and listening to the podcast – don’t forget to rate, review and subscribe – it might seem like a minor thing but it makes a big difference! Come and have a look at the desert island dishes website (www.desertislanddishes.co) – exciting things are going to start happening – and there are lots of recipes including – of course – a delicious pasta recipe inspired by Theo. And other than that, thank you for listening. Tell all your friends, and come and see me on Instagram @margienomura

Vittorio hails from Southern Italy with a degree in Economics, but he was quickly seduced by hospitality world. Upon moving to London, he worked his way up to Head Sommelier for Theo Randall at the InterContinental in just three years. One of his job requirements was over seeing not just the wines, but the entire beverage menu for the restaurant. That’s where his inherent creativity with spirits kicked in and now he is pairing food with cocktails as well as wine. Where you can hear me drinking next: Our next guest, Ali Reynolds has so many titles he’s practically king of the cocktail world.

Kirsty Young's castaway is the chef and restaurateur, Ruth Rogers. Born in America, she has become one of the UK's most celebrated cooks. Despite not being a trained chef, she set up The River Café with her business partner, the late Rose Gray, in 1987. The focus was on high quality, seasonal produce cooked the Italian way. Many of today's top chefs including Jamie Oliver, Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, Theo Randall, Sam Clark and Allegra McEvedy began their careers in their kitchen. The café was awarded a Michelin star in 1997. The youngest of three children, Ruth Rogers' parents were both immigrants and very political. In the late sixties, she left America and moved to London where she joined other Americans protesting against the Vietnam War. In 1969 she met the architect, Richard, now Lord, Rogers and they married in 1973. The couple moved to Paris when Richard Rogers and his partners won the contract to design the Pompidou Centre. There she learned the importance of seasonality: subsequent visits to Italy shifted her passion to Italian cooking. Producer: Cathy Drysdale.
