Queen Elizabeth II is noted for adhering to a number of severe rules and restrictions in her daily life.
Former royal chef Darren McGrady, who worked for The Queen for almost a decade, has exposed some of the Royal Family’s more peculiar eating habits.
Darren explained the tight process at the palace to Coffee Friend: “The Queen chose her own menu.” It was a rather regulated operation, and The Queen served many of the same foods throughout the week. If we had a new recipe for a dish, we would have to send it up to The Queen, who would go over it.”
“That’s how The Queen communicated with us and it read, ‘Who or what are the veiled farmer’s daughters?’ That was the name of the dish. It was strawberries with a cinnamon muesli on the top, which she ended up eating once she knew what it was.”
Darren – who cooked for Princess Diana, Prince William and Prince Harry for a number of years – also revealed that The Queen is known to have quite the sweet tooth: “The Queen was definitely a chocaholic, she loves dark chocolate,” he said.
