The TV chef has been brought in to introduce ‘sustainable and seasonal food’ to Eurostar’s Business Premier service.

Commenting on his appointment, Raymond Blanc said: “As a chef, I’m always searching for the purest ingredients, striving to ensure that everything I use is traceable and responsibly sourced.
