For conditions, please view our photographs. A nice clean rare copy from the library gathered by the famous Cambridge Don, computer scientist, food and wine connoisseur, Jack Arnold LANG. Jack founded the Midsummer House, Cambridge’s paramount restaurant. This dining experience is hidden amongst the grassy pastures and grazing cattle of Midsummer Common and perched on the banks of the River Cam. The Midsummer House experience is imaginatively curated to delight and amaze, so our surprise set menu changes regularly and is our playground to showcase our reverence for purity of flavour and natural seasonal ingredients.

Jamie Oliver grew up in his parents’ country pub, the Cricketers in Clavering, where he started cooking at the age of eight, before studying at London’s Westminster Catering College. He then went on to work with some of the top chefs in England namely Antonio Carluccio at the Neal Street Restaurant and Rose Gray and Ruth Rogers at the River Caf . The author of such popular titles as The Naked Chef, Jamie’s Kitchen, and Jamie’s Italy, among others, he has written for the Saturday Times , served as Food Editor at GQ and Marie Claire magazines, and hosted the popular television show The Naked Chef. The second season of the ABC show Food Revolution will air in Spring 2011.

Review: This is a great book like all the Naked Chef series, but please note that it is the same book as ‘The Return of the Naked Chef’, with a different title, possibly for the American market. So make sure you don’t buy both. I would also highly recommend the DVDs of all three series of the Naked Chef. Fantastic inspiration for a novice cook. Jamie is great!
