Running started as a way of relaxing. It's the only time I have to myself. No phones or e-mails or faxes.

I am happy for them all: Angela Hartnett, Jason Atherton, Marcus Wareing, Mark Sargeant.

In any situation, location is crucial.

I'm actually not really a breakfast person.

I love eating out. I don't deny that. But I don't want 12 or 15 courses because the chef wants me to taste this or taste that. I just want to be able to decide.

I didn't get depressed, I don't get depressed.

Cooking today is far greater than it ever was, and more importantly, a chef's role today has changed dramatically over the last decade.
