Welcome

Elizabeth David is probably the most influential food writer of the mid-to late twentieth century; her work, it can be argued, has changed the way we cook and, in general, the way we view food and drink today. This website is dedicated to her legacy, offering a platform to explore her work, life and the lives of her long list of friends.

Here you can view articles, contribute your own insights and join others in exploring all things ‘Elizabeth David’.

We anticipate future culinary and travel events inspired by Elizabeth David’s own experiences. In the meantime, we invite you to explore and contribute to this ongoing project.
