Don't do these threads, but that has genuinely shocked and saddened me; a man after my own heart, and a fantastic, honest writer.

To a great chef and a wonderful character, who made the kitchen a lot less confidential, RIP

His shows in China were one of the reasons I wanted to visit China, I did, I'm now married and settled down here for the foreseeable future.

He literally changed my life.

RIP.

Don't know how big he is there, but in the US he was a major star. A fixture, almost. Shocking loss.

I couldn't have picked him out of a line up, although his picture looked vaguely familiar. This is a lovely story though, as is the one about getting a local restaurant reviewer a book deal

Seems like a lovely bloke who'll be sadly missed.

My heart goes out to his family and friends. He touched so many, changed so much. Thank you for this.
