Martin Blunos, a blond haired, walrus-moustached Baltic giant of a man, whose restaurant has had two Michelin stars for more than fifteen years

Born to Latvian parents in Britain, Martin grew up in Somerset. His Latvian heritage has influenced Martin's cooking, and his first restaurant Lettonie in Bristol is a testament to this.

A television career has followed and Martin makes regular appearances on Good Food Channel programmes such as Market Kitchen. He also made his own series Tasting Times with Martin Blunos.

Martin demonstrates his cooking at media events and food fares, and was chosen to cook for The Queen in her Jubilee year.
