FOOD & DRINK - life Steph Morgan, Chief Superintendent: My favourite restaurant is Saffrons which is a nice Indian, located in Cowes. My favourite home cooked dish is Pork a la Creme. I do cook and even load the dishwasher on the odd occasion! Brian Hinton MBE, Author: My favourite restaurant is Joe’s, where I love the pasta. At home, Laurie cooks a wonderful smoked salmon omelette. And I tend to do the washing up - my rule has always been he/she who cooks does not clear up after them! William Smith, Businessman: My favourite restaurant at this present time is Morgans, Shanklin. At home, my favourite dish is Salmon, fish and steak. I’m afraid I do not cook at all I normally have people in to cook and do the washing up! Phillip Hoare, Fine Art Valuer: My favourite restaurant is Michaelangelos in Ryde. The best I can ever muster is egg and bacon or a roast, not very imaginative I’m afraid. My wife Judith is a great cook but prefers to paint her pictures. We live in a co-operative - we take it in turns with the washing up. By the time we’ve had a few glasses of wine we usually leave it until the morning. Mike Green, Chef: My favourite restaurant is St Helens Restaurant. My favourite home cooked meal is Sunday Roast with all the trimmings which I love to cook. The kids would go hungry if they relied on me cooking for them at home! Generally I don’t have time to cook at home. Washing Up - God No!! Tim Morgan, Morgans Restaurant: My favourite restaurant has to be The Royal, Ventnor, because it is always so consistent. My favourite home cooked food is line caught local Sea Bass. I don’t cook at home normally, however sometime I cook Stews & Cottage Pies for the kids.! Washing Up - We have a dishwasher, which I must confess I never load! Mark Young, St. Helens Restaurant: My favourite restaurant is The Royal, Ventnor. My favourite home cooked dish is my wife’s (Lian’s) Wild Mushroom Pancetta Risotto. I myself, cook Sausage & Mash with Onion Gravy. Generally I love to cook at home for relaxation. Washing Up? - Don’t be silly we have a dishwasher! Sponsored by - www.holidays2remember.co.uk 85
