The head chef at the New Angel restaurant in Dartmouth, Devon, was also charged with "resisting and obstructing a constable".

That bit made me laugh
But what a twonk eh?

Never heard of him

I watched the programme where he uprooted his family to France for a year. He came across as a rather arrogant, selfish git. When he brought his family back to England, his wife discovered he`d been having an affair for several years and had a young son with the woman. Naturally, the wife divorced the rat. You`ve probably guessed, I`m not keen on Mr Burton Race.

P'raps he had too much of that starter on Britain's Best Dish?

He's an arrogant git who thinks he knows it all.  There aren't too many TV chefs that I don't like, but he is top on the list of my disliked chefs.

Well, he is ... or was ... a Michelin 2-starred chef so he must know something.

There is no doubt he is a good chef, Daniel. He isn`t a very likeable person, IMO.

When he and Ed Bains told that 14yo Ross to use lemon zest instead of lemon juice, he refused saying that he thought they were wrong and it wasn't the taste he was looking for.  Quite funny as Ed Bains didn't know what to do.  I think some of the camera people were laughing as Ed Bains looked at them looking bemused. 

Teenagers are a law unto themselves.

John Burton Race is a bit of a twat but I do like him!

I lovedit when he refused!  He may have or had 2 Michelin stars, but I really don't like him and for that reason alone I would never eat anything he cooked.

I didn't like him when he was on "Step Up to the Plate" either.  If his dish lost against the amateur cooks, he became very sarky.

Nooooooooooo!  Queenie!  Say it isn't true!

Guilty as charged Suzi...
