Duchy backs deli in trademark row over Farsi cookbook title
The Observer
|November 09, 2025
The Duchy of Cornwall, the private estate run by Prince William, has waded into a publishing row in support of a deli owner in Cornwall.
Kate Attlee sparked an industry-wide conversation by claiming trademark infringement over a cookbook published under the same name as her chain of delis, Sabzi.
The word sabzi means "vegetable" or "herb" in Farsi and Urdu, languages that are spoken by more than a billion people around the world. Both Yasmin Khan, the author of the cookbook, and Attlee share Iranian ancestry.
The office of the Duchy of Cornwall wrote to Bloomsbury Publishing in support of Attlee, who is a tenant of the estate.

If Osborne had stood up to Cameron on the Brexit poll, we'd not be in such a mess
As more and more people become aware of the catastrophe that is Brexit, with — as I reported last time - even former chancellor George Osborne suggesting reentry to the customs union, the dilatory nature of the government's “realignment” efforts is becoming embarrassing.
