    Some people are so rude. I truly don't understand it; a mild and smiling person like Darren does not inspire any harsh comment.

      Haters will always find a reason to hate. Darren and daughter handled it with class, but if it were me I would just not bother to air their "questions".

    Truly enjoy your videos. I'm so glad you are in Texas! I'm from Texas and consider you a gift to the lone star state. How about that pecan pie? That seems very Texan. I bet your twist on that old favorite is very special. Tell us about it! Also, did you ever meet Mary Berry?

  • @RIODJENIRO1

    Darren! You should be expecting a check in the mail or at least an Oscar invite! I saw the movie and immediately knew that the character played by Sean Harris was you! I love your stories of cooking for the Royal family!

  • @terminallumbago6465
    @terminallumbago6465 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I have a few questions
    1. Were any of the royals especially picky eaters?
    2. How often did the menus change (either items added or taken off)?
    3. Did the Royals all eat the same meals as each other on a given day, or could each individual pick different ones?
    4. Did you ever get to introduce new dishes to the royal family (either from your own experiences or experimentation with existing items)?
    5. Are there any members of the Royal Family that you never got to cook for but wish you could have? I think cooking for King George VI would have been interesting.

  • @kateg7298
    @kateg7298 2 ปีที่แล้ว +20

    Congratulations on hitting 200k! I do have a question for your next Q&A. You seem fond of the Victorian era. What dish from those years would you bring back to popularity if you could? The trend is for healthier food without additives so it seems like there could be many contenders.

  • @Harbyn
    @Harbyn 2 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    I'm a brit living away in Canada and your videos have an amazing way of me feeling like I'm back at home! (not that I live in Balmoral but you get my drift).
    Keep up the great work, Darren!

    Would love to watch you cooking with your daughter. My Dad was my biggest fan when I was learning to cook. Wish I could cook with and for him now that I’ve gotten much better.

  • @wendyrice7987
    @wendyrice7987 2 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    Absolutely love your videos and can't wait for the next one. A proper Sunday dinner is aspirational and loved your full English breakfast! Your daughter is absolutely lovely and stunning. I have received for Christmas your latest cookbook and a sweatshirt that I has asked for. I would suggest you seek another vendor for your merchandise. Sweatshirt is of poor quality and "Winston" is a decal. Perhaps consider a higher end vendor, although the price may increase for purchase, I would rather spend a bit more on more quality product. You might want to consider a chef jacket as well as part of your merch.

    Your daughter reminds me so much of Keira Knightley. One of my favorite actresses. She's beautiful! Sorry for the rude comments. I can't believe ppl are so rude sometimes. Love your videos and I can't wait to try some of the recipes!

  • @janicewebber5584
    @janicewebber5584 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Well here's my question. Have you ever had a kitchen disaster while cooking for the Royal family & had to make a last minute substitution & if so, what happened?

  • @kcenzer9633
    @kcenzer9633 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Your daughter is beautiful....your entire family, including you, MOST dashing! Having experienced first hand Diana's death, it still must be a heartache for you as it is for millions who loved her. I love your videos thus far on her favorite dishes and would love to see more. Thank You!

  • @CallieMasters5000
    @CallieMasters5000 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Seriously, I had a hard time recognizing you with the new hairdo! 😁
    Question: Have you ever thought, if Diana hadn't passed, where would you be today? Would you have worked for her for the rest of your career, moved on to another employer, or done what you're doing today? I think you said you had the option of staying on in another royal kitchen but decided instead to move to the US to do your own catering business. Was this a hard decision, and did you find it hard working on your own?

  • @darriendastar3941
    @darriendastar3941 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Great Q&A session - thanks for doing it and not dodging any questions. Can I just second the idea that you make a Bakewell Pudding? Of course, as the Bakewell Pudding shops in the town of Bakewell both claim to be the original and to have a generations-old secret recipe, you'll have to worry about hard-looking Derbyshire men and women hanging round outside your house making vague threats about revealing their secrets!
    Brilliant vid as usual :-)

    @toddruble2205 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    You're absolutely great. Love the videos and stories. Your daughter seems like a wonderful young lady, too. Loved her reactions throughout. Can I get your Yorkshire Pudding recipe, please? It's not in the newest cookbook, though there's a ton (or tonne) of incredible looking recipes. So far, I found Mary Berry's the best. Love me some Levi Roots recipes. His Jerk is delicious and not cry spicy. But, I drink Walkerswood sauces, so take it for what it is. Thank you for all you do here and everywhere! Much love

    • @toddruble2205

    Darren, now that Her Majesty has passed, who do you think will be in charge of the Royal kitchens - the King or Queen Consort and do you think there will be an overall change? More relaxed atmosphere? Less formality?

    Hi chef Darren, I love your videos! Iwas wondering if the royal family often eat food from other cultures (example: indian, chinese, middle east...) or is it mainly British and French food? If so what were their favorite food from those cultures?
