"I've been making cooking videos for a couple of years now, and with the launch of my new website and channel, I thought it was about time I made a video about who I am, where I'm from and what I do. After all, you gotta trust the person doing the cooking, so here's me introducing myself...

Last week I was invited to the Anuga FoodTec conference in Cologne. Tetra Pak invited me to cook on their stand where we showcased ingredients packaged in their Tetra Recart retortable cartons.

Truth be told, I've never put much thought into whether my ingredients come in a carton or tin can. However I must say, I learned a lot about the environmental benefits of choosing Tetra Recart over its tin counterpart.

I have some really exciting news! It's here - I've launched a new website and it's called Alpha Papa.

Turtle Bay in Nottingham is located in the Corner House - central to the city. We went on a Saturday evening and the place was jam-packed.

There's a great vibe at this place. Cool, reggae music (I think that's the genre), the staff are really laid back and friendly. Plus, the restaurant is really well decked out with funky decorations, lighting and a cool shack-type bar in the middle.
