THE country's most prestigious restaurants are calling on the Government to
impose a five-year ban on growing and selling genetically modified food
while further research on its impact is carried out.
Celebrated chefs such as Nico Ladenis, of Chez Nico at Ninety Park Lane,
London, and Raymond Blanc, of Le Manoir aux Quat' Saisons in Great Milton,
Oxfordshire, have joined a campaign calling for the ban.
