The cook, who runs the celebrated New Angel restaurant in Dartmouth, Devon, is also accused of resisting a police officer.

It is understood officers were carrying out routine stops in Strete, near Dartmouth, when the 52-year-old was arrested in the early hours of Friday.

He is due to appear before South Devon magistrates in Newton Abbot on November 17 to answer the charges.

Devon and Cornwall police confirmed today that the chef was facing the two allegations. He has been released on unconditional bail.

Mr Burton Race has starred in the TV shows French Leave and Return of the Chef, as well as Britain's Best Dish and I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here in 2007.

Staff at the New Angel, which won a Michelin star in its first year, have not commented on the incident.
