We say bonjour to Raymond Blanc!

The fantastic French foodie, Monsieur Raymond Blanc joins us for breakfast. Croissant anyone...?

He may have two Michelin stars and an OBE to his name, but how does Raymond Blanc fare in our Top Tenuous as he joins us for Breakfast?!

He's one of our most respected chefs, and has helped thousands of people to cook fine French food through his fabulous books. But did you know Raymond Blanc is entirely self-taught? In fact, he didn't even have the skills cut it as a waiter when he first set out in this crazy business we call 'le mange'.

These days, Raymond's philosophy is one we like very much; "good food is central to good living". We'll drink (frothy coffee) to that!
