Tom Kerridge In Conversation With Toby Young

Join the Michelin-starred chef, bestselling author and BBC presenter for a practical guide to starting the New Year in great shape.

In programmes like Saturday Kitchen and Food Detectives, Tom Kerridge has earned a reputation for being more than an uncompromising chef whose brilliance has won him a hoard of Michelin stars; he’s also a hugely imaginative, relatable and charismatic host with a wealth of great stories to tell.

In this In Conversation event, Tom will regale us with tales of his life and career. And in particular, he’ll share what he learned in his quest to get fit and lose weight – without compromising in the kitchen.

Tom knows that cooking good food is the first step on the road to both weight-loss and better performance. He’ll tell you how you can eat well, shed the pounds and kick-start a more active lifestyle.

His home-cooked recipes for British classics, international dishes and family favourites are generous, flavour-packed and nutritious while still lower in calories. This event is for everyone who knows they want to lose weight and do some more exercise, but also needs the motivation to get started. With chef’s techniques for the best lower-calorie cooking, plus tips for stepping up to fitness targets, Tom will give you the inspiration you need to lose weight and get fit.
