AWARD-WINNING restaurant critic and Masterchef judge Jay Rayner performs his Ten Food Commandments at the Swindon Arts Centre on Thursday, October 20, 7.30pm.
The original Ten Commandments have very little to offer when it comes to the complex business of how and what we eat.
Now Jay Rayner has decided it’s time to act.
Enter our new culinary Moses, the legendary restaurant critic, with a new set of hand-tooled commandments for this food-obsessed age.
He deals once and for all with questions like whether it is ever okay to covet thy neighbour's oxen, eating with your hands, and if you should cut off the fat .
The Ten Food Commandments combines reportage and anecdotes with recipes worthy of adoration, and in this audio-visual romp Jay Rayner attempts to lead us to the edible Promised Land.
Jay Rayner is an award-winning writer and broadcaster, best known for his work as a Masterchef judge & restaurant critic for the Observer.
He is a former Critic of the Year and Restaurant Critic of the Year, and in the 2014 British Press Awards he was shortlisted for both Critic of the Year and Specialist Journalist of the Year.
In a recent survey of journalists and the public by UK Press Gazette Jay was voted the most influential food and drink journalist in Britain.
The show includes a Q&A and book signing.
