Danh ngôn của Prue Leith (Sứ mệnh: 6)

Food shouldn't do you any harm, obviously you don't want a bad diet, but it should be one of life's great pleasures.
I opened Leith's in Notting Hill in 1969 and it eventually worked its way into being awarded a Michelin star. At the time, there were a few women running small bistros - but I was the first woman to have a 'serious,' expensive restaurant.
Aged six, I sailed from South Africa to England by steam ship with my family. It was a three-week journey. I remember crying on my birthday when I didn't get the enormous teddy bear that was for sale in the ship's shop but, aside from that, I had a wonderful time.
All I need for a perfect holiday is sun and some peace and quiet. Those make for perfect book-writing conditions.
My husband John's and my breaks are often very culture heavy. He cannot pass a museum without venturing inside, so we tend to see a lot of architecture and so-called places of interest.
What I want to do is produce really delicious food. I want it to look nice, because when you see food you should want to eat it. You shouldn't be saying, 'Oh my goodness, isn't the chef clever, he can weave the Eiffel Tower out of carrot sticks.'
The way to get to like good food is by learning to cook, which is why I'm for ever banging on about children learning to cook.
