With Tanya Gold
Tuesday, 25 November, 2025

A woman that needs no introduction for regular Spectator readers, Tanya Gold has been the Spectator’s restaurant critic since 2011. On the podcast she tells Lara why – while it might be annoying – fellow critic Jay Rayner is never wrong, why the pandemic was ‘disgustingly great’ for food critics and how she has become ‘enslaved' to her aga. Plus, she discusses her favourite restaurants from Hampstead to Cornwall – though it sounds like she would trade them all in for the mini egg, which she calls 'the highest form of food’.Produced by Patrick Gibbons.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.
