Celebrity Chef John Burton Race is famous for his televised move to France with Channel 4's French Leave Searies. This charted the chaos of family life while John tried to re-find his culinary roots. 

 

John was born in Singapore and grew up in the Far East. As a child he would help the family cook, and he decided that he wanted to be a chef at a young age. 

 

John's first job was in a Hampshire hotel. He moved on to cook and train at Le Manoir aux Quat' Saisons with Raymond Blanc. Whilst John was head chef at at Le Petit Blanc in Oxford, it was awarded a Michelin star. His next restaurant, L'Ortolan, in Berkshire, was awarded 2 Michelin Stars.
