Where’s your favourite area in London to go and eat out? 

I loved the vibe at Urban Food Fest in Shoreditch where we’ve been ‘lab testing’ the dishes for my new RASTAurant! I will always love Brixton Market as an area to eat out though of course.

What’s your local restaurant you always go to? 

Negril restaurant in Brixton hill.

Do you have a particular dish from a restaurant that’s your go to? 

All types of fish and anything spicy.

 Favourite restaurant for Jamaican cuisine? 

I have a few favourite takeaways but I don’t know have a favourite restaurant serving authentic Caribbean cuisine. That’s why I’m opening my own!

 Favourite cafe/restaurant for lunch? 

Sergio’s on Great Titchfield St. It’s the perfect spot for lunch before meetings and interviews at BBC. I love that it’s family run and they’re always friendly and welcoming.

Best place to grab a coffee/tea?

 I go to the coffee shop at The Ritzy in Brixton a lot but I love the Spicy Masala Chai tea from the stall in Brixton Market.

Favourite street food stall? 

POP Brixton. 

 Favourite restaurant for a celebration? 

 Giuseppe’s Italian near Borough market, London Bridge.
