benefit of goji berriesCharles Elme Francatelli - Chef to Queen Victoria

"A chef to nobility and a cook for the common man"

One of the culinary legends of his time, Charles Elme Francatelli(1805-1876) was an Italian who journeyed to France for the opportunity to study under the legendary Chef Marie Antoine Careme who many call "the architect of French cuisine."

Revered for his blending of the best of Italian and French cuisine, it wasn't long before he was appointed "chef de cuisine" to the Earl of Chesterfield and later to both the Earl of Dudley and Lord Kinnaird.

When Francatelli tired of his royal duties he detoured into public life where he seized the reins of the Crockford's Club which was THE place to be seen in the mid 1800's. He later moved on to take a turn at the St. James's Club where he attracted the attention of her Royal Highness Queen Victoria who wooed him into her employ.

But the public life was in Charles' blood and even the Queen could not hold him for long. He moved on to become the chef en charge at the Coventry House Club, then went off to put in seven years as the chef de cuisine to the Reform Club, and had stints at the St. James's Hotel, Berkeley Street, Piccadilly, and finished his career at the Freemasons' Tavern where he remained until just before his death.

Although Francatelli had the experience, charm and flourish necessary to please the highest of Royalty, his greatest love was the simple act of cooking. His first book, entitled the "Modern Cook", was published in 1845 and was so popular that it went through an amazing twelve editions.

In 1861 he published the "The Cook's Guide and Housekeeper's & Butler's Assistant", which became the book of reference for any well-managed household, followed shortly after by what many say was his proudest moment: The publishing of his "Plain Cookery Book for the Working Classes" which contained cooking and practical information for the poor and middle class people of his time.

Known for his sweet tooth, Francatelli followed up with "Royal English and Foreign Confectionery Book", in 1862, which was to be his last published work. Francatelli died at Eastbourne on 10 Aug. 1876 as one of the fortunate people who lived their lives doing what they loved best.
