Keith Floyd….”The Original Celebrity Chef”
16/09/09 in News by Dan Clarke | 0 CommentIt was sad to hear the news that Keith Floyd died yesterday this coupled with Patrick Swayze was a very sad day!
I was lucky enough to meet Keith a few times down in Cornwall where I am from. In his earlier days he ran a pub in Cornwall called the “Snooty Fox” we visited there regularly as a family and Keith was always out talking to people and telling stories, and always with a glass of red in his hand!
I remember watching Keith’s cookery programmes and I am sure that some of my inspiration to be a chef came from those early years watching Floyd on Fish…. His style and passion for cooking with good ingredients and producing simple but tasty food was fantastic and these days almost forgotten….
We wish him well as he lays to rest and thank him for the many years of great cooking, lots of laughter and a glass of wine or two!!
