Richard Vines retweeted
Russell Norman on top of his game just two weeks ago. I’d asked him how his background as a drama teacher and a director had informed his life as a restaurateur. Perhaps this little clip from this week’s episode of Cooking the Books will explain why he was so loved.

I first met Russell when @Richardvines introduced me to him for a piece I was writing about Aperol and he was an absolute force of nature. My fond memories include a very long night in Venice and helping him buy glasses (Moscot, natch) in NYC. Missed already. A lovely tribute.
