Restaurant entrepreneur Tony Allan and Italian chef Giorgio Locatelli bring the vivacity and humour of their 12−year friendship to a brilliant partnership in the kitchen‚ combining a professional passion for the best of fresh affordable ingredients with their family and good friends.
Two chefs‚ two countries‚ united by a love of feeding people. Published following the hot new BBC2 TV series‚ the book is infused with the joyful ′live to eat′ philosophy of Giorgio and Tony. The pair′s friendship goes back a long way − from their early days as East End fish supplier and promising young chef.
Tony & Girogio encapsulates their way of living − fun‚ joyful and stylish. Packed with authentic but simple mouthwatering dishes such as open−pepper and pan−fried salmon lasagne‚ and fresh summer peaches infused in red wine‚ the food they each prepare complements life rather than complicates it. Taking Italian market day as a model for shopping‚ the food is inspired by what is good that day − found a ripe tomato? Prepare a quick ragu that the kids will love. Caught some good fish? Then let′s take them home to grill with fresh herbs and eat with loads of friends. From authentic pizza that′s so easy Giorgio′s son Jack shows how to make it‚ to Tony′s melt−in−the−mouth bread−and−butter pudding‚ the food of two countries meets with a lot of friendly rivalry‚ laughs and good munchies along the way.
