Martin Fern is the editor of the ‘Food and Drink’ pages of a daily newspaper and one of his less difficult tasks is to sample what’s on offer in the finest restaurants. What does he think about restaurants that charge exorbitant prices? ‘For those who can afford it, it’s up to them,’ he says. ‘I’d rather spend £120 on a meal I’ll remember for the rest of my life than buy a microwave.’ It was his talent as a cook that led to the offer of a food column from a friend who happened to edit a Saturday Review. For Martin, at the time creative director of an advertising agency, it was a useful secondary income. He was 42 when another newspaper rang to offer a full-time job. ‘It meant a 50 percent cut in guaranteed income,’ he says. ‘But it was a chance to convert my passion into a profession.’ He still does all the cooking at home and tries to keep his waistline under control by cycling a couple of miles to the nearest tube station.
