Nigella Lawson had no hesitation when asked what food she felt best represented the Jewish people.

“Chinese food,” she swiftly responded.

The celebrity cook and food writer was appearing in front of a packed audience at the JW3 community centre in conversation with journalist Sam Baker, who asked her about her cooking career and newly-released cookbook Simply Nigella.

The event, which was hosted by The Alan Howard Foundation/JW3 Speaker Series, sold out in seven minutes and was attended by more than 260 people.
