How has the London restaurant scene changed during your career? Is it better now than when you started out, or do you feel particularly nostalgic for any particular period and if so why?

Yes, it has changed. There are more very good restaurants now than there have ever been .Critics are reviewing restaurants of every price and style and now a cheap meal can be as special as the most expensive.
What do I get nosytalgic about, first experiences, most of them in the early 80's. Poons Chines for the best deepfried squid I had ever tried, smothered with garlic and chilli. My first Thai meal. And a pissaladiere at Lou Pescadou in South Ken after a busy evening service, washed down with a chilled EstandonmRouge
