The world-famous chef gave an interview to Index.hu in his London restaurant Fifteen, where he mentioned in his first sentence that he lives with Hungarians: his housekeeper is a Hungarian woman, and her husband is Hungarian, as well. “They are so keen on Budapest and traditional Hungarian food that I decided to visit Budapest soon, if our restaurant has opened its gates there and things get a little calmer” – he said.
Jamie has never been to Hungary but he knows a lot about Hungarian gastronomy: he has a lot of Hungarian cookbooks and he thinks that he understands the philosophy behind all the traditional foods here.
Besides, he has a lot of Hungarian employees. „I love to work with Hungarian people. If you are lucky enough to have Hungarian employees, you can be satisfied as a boss because Hungarians are hardworking and intelligent folks. Honestly, I don’t say this just because I am having an interview with a Hungarian website” – Jamie Oliver added.
Jamie Oliver opens his newest restaurant Jamie’s Italian in Budapest in May, this spot will be his fourth restaurant in Europe after Moskow, Istanbul and Rotterdam.
