Russell Norman: Brutto

This week, Gilly is with Russell Norman, the award-winning
restaurateur, writer and broadcaster who brought Italy to
the British high street, first through Polpo, the book and chain
of Venetian style restaurants which gave us small plate food
culture, and now Brutto, the Florentine trattoria next to
London’s Smithfield market.





Brutto, the book, is about much more than the recipes of the
restaurant. It’s an ode to Florence where we find what
Russell calls the 'ugly but beautiful' food that the Tuscan
capital is really all about.





Don't forget to head to Gilly's Substack to see what Russell has
cooked up over on Extra Bites
