Jeremy Lee: Simply Delicious

Cooking, by renowned chef Jeremy Lee, is more than just a recipe book. It’s a love song to simple ingredients, peppered with stories from the dinners of his Dundonian childhood to the busy kitchen of his iconic Soho restaurant, Quo Vadis. Hear him in a delicious conversation with Marjorie Lotfi that will leave you charmed by his wit, inspired by his passion, and probably very hungry.
