When 21-year-old David went for a dive while working on the island of Bermuda, he had no idea that it would change his life. An accident paralysed the chef and 2nd Dan karate black belt from the shoulders down - on the same day that he was informed he would compete in the 1980 world karate championships and inaugural world games.
David, who had previously worked at the Savoy and Churchill hotels in London, is telling his life story in Food for Thought. The book documents the highs and lows of his life, often in a humorous manner, and has a recipe section at the back which some of the best chefs in Britain have contributed to. Gary Rhodes, Marco Pierre White, Gordon Ramsay and Gino D'Acampo, amongst others, have added their delicious recipes that are accompanied by mouthwatering pictures.
