Food is indelibly entwined with the culture and tradition within which is it prepared and eaten. It tells stories as it nourishes, and can provide a glimpse into someone's history.
I wouldn't consider myself a chef. I'm really just a fan of the food from the various backgrounds of my family and I love to illustrate and express that with others.
The first main inspiration was the Rastafari community in Jamaica. I loved the way they incorporate nature and self-sustenance in their cooking and with a limited amount of tools and cookware they would create the most amazing dishes.
The others included my Caribbean and American aunts who could cook up a feast for 15-20 people whilst holding a baby. In the London community, there is an eternal amount to be inspired by.
