57 min • 11 augusti 2025

Seven Michelin stars. Inventing Multi-Sensory Dining. Triple-cooked chips. Bacon-and-egg ice cream. The Fat Duck. Dinner by Heston. Sous Vide. Changing the way the entire world thinks about food.


In this unmissable conversation, culinary icon Heston Blumenthal sits down with us for a no-holds-barred deep dive into his life, mind, and food philosophy. From the teenage moment in Provence that ignited his obsession with flavour, through the chaotic early years of The Fat Duck, to inventing multi-sensory dining experiences that make people cry at the table - Heston reveals it all with trademark wit and candour.


Hear the stories behind his most famous creations, the science experiments that rewrote the rules of cooking, and the fierce curiosity that made him question everything; from how we name dishes to the sounds we hear while we eat. He opens up about pressure, burnout, inspiration, and why he’s finally acknowledging his place in culinary history.


It’s Heston as you’ve never heard him: raw, brilliant, funny, and endlessly fascinating.
