Little died at home in Australia on 3 August 2022, at the age of 72.

2019

In 2019, he started a home delivery service in London based on the dishes he had created for Tavola called 'ByAlastairLittle'.

2017

In 2017, Little moved to Sydney with his wife Sharon and opened a pop up restaurant "Little Bistro" inside the CBD Hotel, owned by the Merivale Group. He was the co-owner of restaurant Et Al in Potts Point, in the north of the Kings Cross area of Sydney.

In 2017 Little was the subject of an episode of BBC Radio 4's Food Programme hosted by broadcaster Sheila Dillon.

2002

By 2002, Little had left the partnership, losing the right to use his name on another business. Little started a deli in Notting Hill, West London, called Tavola.

1998

In 1998, photographer Barry Marsden took his portrait. The resulting black and white image now hangs in the National Portrait Gallery, London.

1995

In 1995, the partners opened a second restaurant, also named Alastair Little, off Ladbroke Grove in West London. The Times's restaurant critic Jonathan Meades described it as feeling "altogether right".

1993

In 1993, his restaurant won the Times Restaurant of Year award. His 1993 Keep It Simple won the Glenfiddich Award for Best Food Book of the Year.

1984

From 1984 to 1995, he was partner to Kirsten Pedersen, with whom he had two children. In 1995, while teaching in Umbria, he met Sharon, and in 2000 they married. He and Sharon, who is from Sydney, had one child.

1976

In 1976, he was working at the Old Compton Wine Bar. When the chef quit, Little asked for the job. Out of necessity due to his inexperience professionally, he kept the menu simple. He recalls checking what was in the refrigerator each morning, then going shopping at the small produce markets and butchers in Soho. He moved to a restaurant in Wrentham, Suffolk, for two years, and then to one in Putney, and in 1981 he started at L'Escargot in Soho. He moved to 192 (Kensington Park Road), where he created simple menus that changed daily, a service model "unheard of back then", according to Sheila Dillon. He began studying Italian cuisine by reading Marcella Hazan's Classic Italian Cookbook. While at 192 he met Kirsten Pedersen and Mercedes Andre-Vega, who were waiting table there. The three of them opened the restaurant Alastair Little in Frith Street, Soho in October 1985. According to The Independent it was one of the first eponymous restaurants in Britain.

1972

Little graduated in 1972 and planned to become a film editor; to break in to the industry he got a job as a messenger for a film studio in Soho. He supplemented his earnings as a waiter at Small's, a Knightsbridge cafe. His income from waiting table so far outstripped those as a messenger that he quit the messenger job to wait table full time, and he eventually became assistant manager at Small's. According to Little, he watched the cooks and felt "envious"; at home he "worked [his] way through Robert Carrier's [Great] Dishes of the World".

1950

Alastair Little (25 June 1950 – 3 August 2022) was a British chef, cookbook author and restaurateur. He first became known in the 1980s for his eponymous Soho restaurant and frequent appearances on British television. His menus, which changed daily and featured seasonal produce, were influential in modern British restaurants.

Little was born on 25 June 1950 in Colne, Lancashire, to Robert and Marion (née Irving). His father was an officer in the British Navy. His mother and grandmother were accomplished cooks, and the family had an allotment. At age 11 he entered Kirkham Grammar School, where the low quality of the food made him appreciate the food at home. He and his family travelled throughout western Europe, and he became interested in food and dining. His earliest gastronomic memory was the taste of homemade chicken broth with noodles in Limoges.
