This week's special bonus episode of Life in Food with Laura Price is a bit of a change from the norm because I've interviewed my very own parents, Chris and Tony Price, who are celebrating 50 years of marriage in 2022. I credit my parents for leading me to my love of food, but I've never really explored where their own love of food comes from, so I wanted to quiz them about their own parents, the foods they ate growing up and how they went from a young couple who never ate out to regular restaurant goers and world travellers. In the episode, we talk about growing up with ration books, sharing a love of Fry's Chocolate Cream bars, and the secret to a long and happy marriage.Chris and Tony Price's restaurant recommendations:The Alice Hawthorne in Nun Monkton.The Three Acres in Huddersfield.The Dunkirk in Huddersfield.About The Berni Inn.About the host: Laura Price is a multilingual journalist who travels the world writing about restaurants.

In the episode, Clover speaks movingly about the horse-riding accident that left her mother severely disabled when Clover was a teenager, and how that experience changed her family life and her relationship with her sister Nell. She talks about the death of both her mother and Nell, relating it to family food memories of home-cooked lasagne, roll-mop herrings and fish chowder. Finally, we also talk about Dame Deborah James and why it's important to encourage healthy conversation around death.About Clover Stroud:Clover Stroud is a writer and journalist whose work features regularly in the Sunday Times, the Guardian and the Saturday and Sunday Telegraph, among others.

In the latest episode of Life in Food with Laura Price, I speak to Ana Ros, chef-owner of Hisa Franko restaurant in the beautiful Soca Valley, Slovenia. Ana was named The World’s Best Female Chef in 2017 and Hisa Franko is a regular on The World’s 50 Best Restaurants list. But beyond the accolades, Ana is a hard-working mother of two, struggling with the same issues every mother experiences. In the episode, we talk about anorexia and baby loss, encouraging her children to try new foods and experiencing guilt as a working mum.About Ana Ros: Ana became a chef by accident, taking over her then-husband Valter’s restaurant when her father-in-law retired. That meant turning down a job as a diplomat in Brussels, which led her own father to stop talking to her. Since then, Ana has starred in her own episode of the brilliant Chef’s Table documentary on Netflix and has won countless accolades. In 2020, she published her beautiful memoir, Sun and Rain, featuring recipes alongside moving stories on everything from losing a baby to suffering from anorexia, and overcoming family pressure to follow a different career path. Follow Ana on Instagram @anaros40.Follow Hisa Franko on Instagram @hisafranko.Buy Ana's book Ana Ros: Sun and Rain.Visit Hisa Franko's website.About the host: Laura Price is a multilingual journalist who travels the world writing about restaurants.

Like me, Sian is a food-obsessed freelancer who tailors her life around meals and spends an inordinate amount of time 'peruse bouching' (that's Sian's term for menu-browsing), so we had much to discuss. In the episode, we talk about everything from figuring out what success looks like as a freelancer to banana sandwiches, original Hula Hoops and 'happy soup'. This is a worthwhile listen not just for the self-employed, but for anyone grappling with working from home or simply trying to discover what they want from life.About Sian Meades-Williams: Sian is an award-winning journalist and author of several books including The Pyjama Myth and The Feminist Quiz Book.
