He's a chef, yeah. His earliest shows were all cooking (which I wasn't into - Dom is, heh). Then he got full-on into working with youth in Bwitain - took on the school dinner system in British schools and proved that kids could be given good, nutritious foods for bugger all money. Then started up a restaurant called 15 in which he gave homeless and chronically unemployed kids a chance at a cook's apprenticeship. That's what really won me over - he was fantastic with those kids. Firm and fair and no-nonsense. He's back to his full-on cooking shows now, but I'm a fan. :)
