Summary

This week we welcome the restaurateur, entrepreneur, cook, writer and judge of Great British Bake Off Prue Leith onto Rosebud. Prue tells Gyles about her childhood, growing up under apartheid in South Africa; she reveals how she joined the boy scouts, became president of the tree-climbing club, and confronted the headmistress at her religious school with a shocking revelation. She and Gyles talk about her year in Paris learning French, the lightbulb moment in which she discovered her love of food, and the early years of setting up her first restaurant in London. This is a fascinating conversation about a fascinating, and boldly lived, life. Prue's book 'Life's Too Short to Stuff a Mushroom' is out now, published by Quarto, and is a great Christmas present. Thank you to Prue for this wonderful interview. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
