The 21st edition of Cool Cucumber TV is now served. It’s ready and waiting at www.coolcucumber.tv.
This new edition begins with the Elephant in the Room - at Cyrus Todiwala’s enticing new restaurant at the recently-opened Hilton close to Heathrow’s Terminal 5.
After which we rush over to sunny Barnes to take a look at all the goodies on offer at the very first Barnes Food Fair.
For our books item, we grabbed Jane Hornby after her cookery demonstration at the Food Fair in Barnes and persuaded her to talk about her excellent and useful book “What to Cook and How to Cook it”.After which we bumped into star chef Phil Howard, of the Square - who is also behind the Ledbury, featured in coolcucumber tv programme 19. He talks about his restaurants, deliciousness, and the next generation of chefs.
Louis Xavier Lewis-Smith, the Hendricks Ambassador, invents a cocktail for us, which he calls his Grandfather’s Clock.
And finally, Paul Danabie from the Hilton does wonders with beetroot.
