Author Biography

Tim Siadatan has become synonymous with bold Italian cooking since he graduated from the first intake at Jamie Oliver's Fiteen. After a year and a half at the iconic St John restaurant he went on to work at Moro, before opening Trullo with his good friend and business partner Jordan Frieda in June 2010. It opened to a flurry of critical acclaim that propelled Trullo into the spotlight, and the restaurant has since established itself not only as a favorite neighborhood restaurant in Islington, North London, but also as one of the best Italian restaurants in the UK. In 2016, the duo opened their second restaurant, Padella, a fresh pasta bar in Borough Market that immediately saw queues around the block and hordes of adoring fans. His restaurants have since garnered huge acclaim, and he has notched up two Bib Gourmand awards and further awards in The Times, Observer Food Monthly, Evening Standard and Time Out. He lives in Somerset, Britain.
