Simon Says
JANUARY 9, 2009 FRIDAY AT 3PM CT

 
 
Given the English reputation, the words "British" and "chef" put together might strike you as an oxymoron. But Simon Hopkinson is not just a first-rate chef whose recipes reflect all the great cuisines of the world, he is also a brilliant writer whose 2005 cookbook, Roast Chicken and Other Stories, was voted "the most useful cookbook of all times." Jean first learned about Simon while in Beijing in the company of a mad Irishman who walked us nearly to death searching for an obscure Muslim restaurant that served first-rate eel.

Guest
  • Simon Hopkinson, chef, author of Roast Chicken and Other Stories
