Too Many Critics, the charity fundraiser that saw a number of restaurant writers swap the keyboard for the kitchen, raised more than £121,000 for Action Against Hunger in a record-breaking evening for the longstanding event. Organised by food writer Bill Knot, the team had hoped to make £100,000.
Held in Vivek Singh’s Cinnamon Club in Westminster on Sunday June 4, the evening saw critics and food writers step up to the tandoor oven, with Giles Coren, Grace Dent, Adam Hyman, Tom Parker Bowles, Rose Prince and the Standard’s own David Ellis taking part. The evening was hosted by chef and television presenter Ravneet Gill.
