A huge unexpected gain was learning about the fine dining aspect of raw food. I had sort of dismissed it as not really being for me and not something I could use in my own business. How wrong was I?
— Rosie Tait, UK
 
I have yet to meet anyone as infinitely creative with decadent raw food recipes as Deborah Durrant. I would wholeheartedly recommend without hesitation.
