Christopher Richard "Rick" Stein OBE (born 4 January 1947) is an English celebrity chef, restaurateur and television presenter. He is Head Chef and co-owner of "Rick Stein at Bannisters" at Mollymook, New South Wales, Australia,〔(Rick Stein at Bannisters )〕 and owns four restaurants in Padstow, a fish and chip shop in Falmouth, Cornwall and a fish and chip shop in Newquay, Cornwall. He has written a number of cookery books and has presented a number of television programmes. ==Early years== Of German descent, Stein was born on 4 January 1947 in Churchill, Oxfordshire, to Eric and Dorothy Stein. Stein was educated at Wells Court, a preparatory school just outside Tewkesbury, then Wells House, the Court's bigger sister-school at Malvern Wells, and then Uppingham School. He took A-levels in English, history and geography, but failed all of them. He moved to a cram school in Brighton, gaining E grades in English and history. Stein partially completed a hotel management traineeship with British Transport Hotels at its Great Western Royal Hotel in Paddington. He worked there as a chef for six months. Distraught by his father's suicide, at age 19 he went to Australia, where he worked as a labourer in an abattoir and as a clerk in a naval dockyard. He travelled to New Zealand and Mexico around that time to "take some time out".〔(Interview with Rick Stein - Celebrity Angels )〕 Being on his own, he read widely, reflected on his attitude to education, and applied successfully to New College, Oxford; he earned an English degree in 1971. Shortly after that, he moved to Padstow. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rick Stein」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
