My dinner date with The Sudanese Kitchen

Monday, 10 April 2017

Last night I attended my cousin's POP UP event  in Hoxton which was promoting his cookbook called  Sudanese Kitchen.
( Please note  that it will be released soon and I can't wait to share it with you all.)

This project has been in the works for the past few years and I'm proud to be an ambassador and support my cousin with it. I have seen him collect recipes from various family members from all over Sudan and  even research more about the culture and educate us about it. I feel it is important to be connected with your roots and discover where you come from and with this project, I have never felt more close to my heritage and I'm proud to be Sudanese. 

Although the country isn't developing as well as it should, I am proud of the sense of community my culture brings and that I am able to share that with the people I care about and show them how much love we have for one another. 

With all that in mind,  here are the pictures from my dinner date with The Sudanese Kitchen.

Every Ting Irie

Tuesday, 20 December 2016

For a long time, Italian Food used to be my favourite kind of food and it wasn't until I visited London a few times and visited places like The Rum Kitchen,  that it changed to Jamaican. There's something about it that is aesthetically appealing to me and the fact that they mix fruits with their cooking which makes it more healthy.

So, while I was living in Dubai, I hoped and prayed they will open up an Jamaican restaurant and it seems my prayers have been answered with Ting Irie and Miss Lily's . Having these places open up in Dubai makes the universal culture of Dubai more global and I hope that more international and new places open up here.

Here are a few images from the restaurant;
