Win a copy of Stuart Ralston's debut book!

Showcasing recipes from Aizle and Noto, stories from his travels around the world, and even his experience working under Gordon Ramsay, Stuart Ralston’s debut book offers readers an exclusive insight into the world of one of Scotland’s best chefs.


Born in Glenrothes, Stuart Ralston has worked in some of the world’s most coveted culinary locations, including New York where he worked extensively with Gordon Ramsay, and Barbados.

Documenting his travels, his recipes and their inspiration, Catalogued Ideas and Random Thoughts, traces Stuart’s evolution as a chef and restauranteur. 

Describing the book in more detail, Stuart said: "The book is really a small part about my story and how I've gotten to where I've gotten to with the restaurants and my travels. A lot of the food is inspired by the places that I've worked and the places I've eaten at across the world."
