Jay Rayner faces some serious questions and in Nights Out in the Kitchen, the show marking the publication of his fabulous new cookbook, he’s finally going to answer them.
What’s the secret to a great dinner party? Is a restaurant critic, renowned for his negative reviews, just a bit of a scumbag? What’s the best thing you can have on toast? Can you braise spaghetti? And what does a food writer do when they’ve run out of words like ‘crispy’, ‘moist’ and ‘dense’? All of these vital issues, posed to Jay by someone very close to his cholesterol-drenched heart, will be up for discussion alongside many more as he sets out on tour.
Join wit, raconteur, and occasional pastry-wrangler Jay Rayner, for a couple of hours of intense foodie insight, fabulous dinner ideas and the occasional dodgy one too.
Top priced tickets receive a signed hardback copy of Nights Out in the Kitchen, to be published in September 2026. It’s the hugely anticipated sequel to Jay’s bestselling first cookbook, Nights Out At Home, and features more recipes inspired by his favourite dishes from over a quarter of a century reviewing restaurants, alongside a whole bunch of his own.
