Who or what inspires you to cook?

Who? Everything from Matty Matheson to Marco Pierre White. What? I’ve always loved caring for people, and feeding them is one of the many better ways of doing so. Plus it’s a beautiful form of communication with no need for fussy words.

What's your all time favorite dish to make?

Shooooot, that’s a tough one, but making a bowl of tonkotsu ramen or a rendang.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would 100% use part of it to take my best friend and I to Japan, a life long dream of ours. Fix up my car and start investing towards opening up my own brick & mortar, another life long dream.
