Food !

What can I say? I’m a total ‘foodie’. Food has always been an integral part of my life especially coming from an Asian family where we place so much importance, and put so much love, in our dishes. Early in 2019 I was lucky to be asked to do a pilot of a food show for the BBC, and not long after James Braxton (my good friend and BBC colleague) suggested that I should do a ‘celeb’ kitchen takeover and cook for 90+ diners at his place, so I donned my Chefs ‘whites’ in the fabulous Lamb Inn at Wartling !

How many diners are we feeding James?

I think my face says it all – dinner for 90 covers !?
