Tom Parker Bowles

Food writer and critic

"I'm not really up on my royal history" - Tom Parker Bowles

How do you make food your job without having to cook it? 

Well you become a food writer and critic (and all time lover of food) like Tom Parker Bowles, who says “I loved eating and could just about string a sentence together, so I thought I could write about it...I was rubbish at everything else.”

🍗On the menu; diabolical boarding school food, mum’s roast chook, all of the chillies, why he may have been a bogan in a previous life, and how his latest book Cooking and the Crown: Royal Recipes from Queen Victoria to King Charles the Third was conceived. 

Tom’s social cause is Action Against Hunger - actionagainsthunger.org, 

There is more than enough food to feed everyone on the planet yet:

• 1 in 11 people suffer from hunger

• 40% of the world’s population doesn’t have access to a healthy diet – that includes first-world countries like the UK and Australia
