  • Galton Blackiston is an English chef, born in Norfolk. The restaurant of his hotel, Morston Hall, is Michelin starred and has 3 AA rosettes. It is on the north Norfolk coast, two miles from Blakeney. Blackiston has never trained formally as a chef, instead gleaning experience on the job as he worked his way to head chef in his first job at the Miller Howe country hotel in the Lake District. Of his beginnings, Galton says: As a cash strapped 17 year old I set up a market stall in Rye selling home made cakes, biscuits and preserves. The range became known by the locals as ‘Galton’s Goodies’, was constantly sold out and I realised cooking was my future! Blackiston represented the Midlands and East of England in the BBC's Great British Menu, knocking out celebrity chef Antony Worrall Thompson to gain a place in the final. As of 2008, he is working on the television programme Food Poker. Like his friend, the cookery writer Delia Smith, Blackiston supports Norwich City Football Club. He is married, with two children. During the summer months, Galton can often be found donning his whites and turning out for local cricket team, Sheringham C.C.
