Russell Norman on top of his game just two weeks ago. I’d asked him how his background as a drama teacher and a director had informed his life as a restaurateur. Perhaps this little clip from this week’s episode of Cooking the Books will explain why he was so loved.

Dorchester Collection’s first address in the Middle East – The Lana, Dubai – will officially open on Thursday, February 1, 2024. Bookings are now open, with rates starting from £735 per night/room only (including taxes) dorchestercollection.com/dubai/the-lana

I first met Russell when Richard Vines introduced me to him for a piece I was writing about Aperol and he was an absolute force of nature. My fond memories include a very long night in Venice and helping him buy glasses (Moscot, natch) in NYC. Missed already. A lovely tribute.

Russell Norman was not just a celebrated chef, but a talented actor too | Letter theguardian.com/food/2023/nov/…
