If you have a supperclub, pop up or home restaurant and would like it reviewed by me please contact me at marmitelover@mac.com

I am also writing a book on the movement if you would like to be included.

If in paris, you should try Hidden Kitchen, run by a couple of acquaintances of mine. Pricey but very very good.

"The hundreds of diners who've attended one of Rodgers's supper clubs (aka Ms Marmitelover, she is one of the pioneers of the movement in the UK) will be able to confirm, between satisfied burps, that she cooks the kind of food that people really want to eat. This is a beautifully designed collection of some of her most successful menus. Resistance is futile."

The Guardian on Supper Club: recipes and notes from the underground restaurant (Dec 2011)

"I really like your book, full of tips and interesting information" Fay Maschler, Evening Standard.

"Some of your recipes are very experimental" Heston Blumenthal

Oh wow - @msmarmitelover's *beautiful* cookbook has arrived. Want to make literally everything in it. I have a total cookbook boner. You know that thing when you find a new cookbook and instantly love it? Quite rare. BONER. India Knight.(read more on India Knight's Posterous)

Yerz book's amazin man. Theu Ah'll nut make any of the scran Ah'll just look at the pickchaz. OK pet? @CherylKerl

"Here's that rare and beautiful thing, a cookbook you might conceivably want to read" Marcus Berkman, Daily Mail.

"The first supper club of MsMarmite (Kerstin Rodgers) that I heard of was the Elvis Presley Anniversary Dinner. My boyfriend and I were desperate to go but unfortunately due to popular demand it was sold out! Recently I managed to get a week off tour for Ryan's birthday and I took him to the 'Underground Restaurant' for a private meal in the shed with the log fire. The food was outrageously good. Hearty, warm, gooey and fresh, the best salsa I've ever tasted and the most insanely comforting macaroni and cheese. I really can't stress enough how good it all was and how full we ended up." Kate Nash and Ryan Jarman

"Half homely, half terrifying" a fan.

"MsMarmitelover is a small woman with a loud laugh. She's not shy" random blogger.

"It was lovely meeting you. I like your bitchiness" Jon Ronson

"MsMarmitelover is a talented chef." Hardeep Singh Koli

"The amazing MsMarmiteLover...reminds me of the fairies in Disney’s version of Sleeping Beauty: cheeks pink with pleasure, sparkling with happiness and joie de vivre, almost flying from one table to another, interested in everything and everyone, happy to sit down and chat and share with you. She’s so contagious! Add to this that she has lived 7 years in France and speaks perfect froggie." French blogger/guest

"You're like a spoiled brat on acid, I'm of course envious of your flat, shrink, daughter, breasts and teeth" Ex boyfriend

"She looks fun" Chris Evans

"I might come" George Lamb

"Not sure I like the sound of this" Robert Elms
