About this Author
Thomas Straker is a classically trained chef and owner of Straker's restaurant. He started his journey as a chef after leaving school in 2008, but really it began long before that, growing in Herefordshire where his parents kept special breed sheep, and he prides himself on his deep knowledge of produce and good farming. Tom's mother also owned a local pub where he gained his first exposure to commercial kitchens at the ripe old age of 12.
He has worked in some of London's top restaurants including The Dorchester, Dinner and Elystan Street. Tom has since begun to make cooking videos and amassed over 5 million followers worldwide, including millions on both TikTok and Instagram, and his #AllThingsButter series has been viewed over one billion times. Tom's first restaurant, Straker's, was opened to critical acclaim and has been cited as one of the most sought-after tables in London. This is his debut cookbook. He lives in London.
