| | British Cuisine Is Celebrated |
 | | Heston Blumenthal, the proprietor of the Fat Duck restaurant in the Berkshire village of Bray, which has become synonymous with such delights as bacon and egg ice-cream and cauliflower with chocolate, is now the owner of the best eaterie on continent. |
 | | The restaurant, which is already the holder of the most rapidly achieved three Michelin stars in British history, saw off competition from such temples to gastronomy as El Bulli in Spain and L'Atelier de Joel Robu-chon in Paris to collect the award at a ceremony in London last week. |
 | | Blumenthal, who only began cooking for a living in 1995, bases his cuisine on 3,500 "essences", kept in garden sheds behind his restaurant, which are chemical versions of the methods he uses to pair tastes in food. |
