Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall has just been for a swim. Not in a heated indoor pool, silly - those are for wimps, and anyway they’re still closed due to Covid. Instead, the celebrity chef-cum-television star-cum-campaigner has become one of those cold water swimming people.
He started two years ago with the gateway drug of cold showers and baths, and has since graduated to the real deal.
“I’ve already been in the pond this morning, which is currently about seven degrees,” he tells me over Skype from his East Devon home. “It’s quite nippy.”
From street food to market stall to restaurant
By Martin Booth, Wednesday Apr 7, 2021
Low & Slow began as a street food stall on Gloucester Road before getting a market stall at St Nick’s.
They are now set to open their first permanent barbecue restaurant, promising ‘slow cooked fast food’.
“Fast food has been dominated by burgers and fried chicken for far too long and we want to do something a bit different,” say Low & Slow co-founders Jack Geach and Lyndsey Murdoch.
Independent journalism is needed now more than ever.
Low & Slow are opening on Whiteladies Road in the former premises of Boston Tea Party, who are moving a few hundred metres up the road to the former River Cottage Kitchen on Blackboy Hill.
