Nigella Lawson praised his tremendous cooking talent
I’m so sad to hear of Gary Rhodes’ death. His poor family. He was such a talent, nothing to do with the showbiz aspect. Remember his food from the Castle Hotel and the Greenhouse so fondly and admiringly.

Today is a tremendously sad day for the culinary industry!
I had the pleasure to cook for Gary 2 years ago in a cooking competition he judged, and although I only came 2nd, I’m pleased he judged my food!
