Ruthie's Table 4: Olivia Colman

05/08/23 • 34 min

I first met Olivia over food one night in the river Cafe, she was with Maggie Gyllenhaal, and they had just wrapped filming for their movie the Lost Daughter in Greece. It is not an exaggeration to say they pretty much ordered everything on the menu. We immediately got into talking about feeding our kids, cooking, and inflicted distance from family when working. This was a conversation that could have lasted for hours, but I had to go back to the kitchen and she needed to finish her lemon pasta before it cooled down.

Today we are here in the River Café and she is the one cooking the lemon pasta - we are going to pick up where we left off a conversation with a woman, I admire respect and adore. Lucky me.

Ruthie's Table 4: Yotam Ottolenghi

Yotam Ottolenghi and I were introduced years ago by a mutual friend, Ari Sharpio. “Ruthie,” he said, “you’ve got to meet this guy. You think the same way.”

Yotam and I believe in the people we work with, valuing them and their creativity. We also share a food geography. Mine, an Italian landscape of the Renaissance, his farther east, a beautiful Biblical landscape of desert and sea.

We both live and work in London—a city far from where we were born. As a chef, cookbook author, and restaurateur, Yotam has pioneered a new approach to Middle Eastern cooking, while changing the way we shop and eat with his inviting gourmet markets. Sitting here in The River Cafe today, we will talk about separation and connection, Eastern and Western, food, family, friends and thinking the same way.

Listen to Ruthie’s Table 4: Yotam Ottolenghi today.

Transcript

Speaker 100:00:00.040

Welcome to Ruthie's Table for a production of iHeartRadio and Adami's Studios. The films of Olivia Coleman have the power to move us to tears, make us laugh, and inspire us to try something new. They can also make us feel really, really hungry. In the Favorite Playing Queen Anne, Olivia Coleman conveys her authority by insisting on a cup of over rich hot chocolate, and there are tables laden with roasted venison, lamb cakes, desserts, the symbols
