BACKGROUND: Lucia owned a French restaurant, in SW France throughout the nineties. It was frequented by a botanist & war veteran named 'Juju' who came to the cafe with his arms full of plants for the menu. Food from Le terroir kindled an interest in the freshest and most seasonal ingredients straight from the land. Her art degree and techincal cooking skills facilitated a unique approach and creativity towards plants and the landscape. The Restaurant Cafe du Livre, featured in The New York Times. The decade in France became the foundation of The Wild Kitchen UK today. In 2011 Lucia published Eating Flowers, an illustrated foraging cook book for children for a reconnection with nature, good nutrition and simple recipes. She is working on her second wild food cook book.
