Tom Aikens shares what it takes to thrive within the world of high end dining.

We all know the kitchen is where stuff happens. It’s there that we chew the fat, make life’s big decisions and, when no one’s watching, slurp straight from the tin. Join me, Anna Barnett, as I head into the kitchens of celebrity guests to swoon over the styling, discuss their career highs and lows, and get stuck in to some serious food chat.Each weekly episode ends with our guest showing us their strongest sandwich game - and very possibly the contents of their fridge!
