He's one of New Zealand's best-known chefs but a new book takes an intimate look at the life of Simon Gault beyond his culinary skills. He's been the driving force behind Bell House, Euro, Jervois Steak House, Gault's on Quay and Giraffe - and spent five years as a judge on Masterchef New Zealand. A scare with Type-2 diabetes helped shape his interest in getting healthier and he fronted two TV shows encouraging others to do that: Why are We Fat and Chef on a Mission. Perhaps less well-known is Simon's passion for flying - something he goes into depth in, in his new biography Simon Gault: No Half Measures. It's been written with help from journalist and restaurant reviewer Kim Knight. And for the food-lovers among us, it's also peppered full of Simon's favourite recipes. |
