We look forward to Royal Ascot every year, as renowned for its crowd, fashions and prestigious flat racing as for its pageantry and regal history; it was founded by Queen Anne back in 1711. This year, more than 10 Michelin stars make up 2020 Royal Ascot Fine Dining. Arriving at the Icetank venue in Holborn, Raymond Blanc OBE, Skye Gyngell, Simon Rogan, Ollie Dabbous, Brett Graham and Eric Lanlard each took to the stage taking their turn to cook up a storm, flexing their culinary muscles. Scrambling for forks were guests including Antonina Parker, Alexandra Dudley, Rosie Tapner, Leander Cadbury, Pamela Golebiowska and Ellen Gibbons with Matthew Fort compering.

In fact, I believe Royal Ascot to be the single biggest collection of stars – both on and off the track – of any British sporting event.”
