Show Notes

What does a Michelin starred chef have after a night on the beers? Find out as Paul Ainsworth reveals all to Simon on this latest episode of Grilling. (Clue: not cavia.) Paul cut his teeth under the late Gary Rhodes before working for Gordon Ramsay and later Marcus Wareing. Then, in 2006, he and two friends opened a restaurant, which he and his wife Emma now own and run themselves. Paul Ainsworth at Number 6 in Padstow was awarded its star in 2013, and he also oversees local Italian favourite Rojano's In The Square and The Mariners pub in Rock. As well as finding out his aforementioned guilty late-night pleasure, we also discover what made Gary Rhodes's bread and butter pudding so darn fine, get a frightening glimpse into a Ramsay kitchen, and learn how to elevate a simple burger into something really rather special.

As ever, we're giving away a premium Weber barbecue too. Listen in or head to weber.com/grilling to find out how you can win. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
