Episode 05: Millie Mackintosh

I can’t believe we’ve come to the end of Season 6! Thank you again for joining me on this incredible journey, continuously supporting and listening to me. Don’t worry – I’ll be back sooner than you think for another bigger and better season!To finish things off, I’m joined by Judy Joo, the Korean chef behind shows such as Iron Chef and restaurants JinJuu and Seoul Bird.She opens up about her childhood in New Jersey, growing up in a Korean household with her mum fermenting kimchi in the family garage and drying chillis on top of the fridge. She discusses the frustration with people trying to understand Korean food, with critics trying to compare it to Thai food in the early days (!) and she explains the difference in chopsticks per each Asian cuisine. My mind is blown!And don’t worry – I ask her the all important question; why is Korean fried chicken is SO DAMN GOOD?!!@judyjoochef@crazysexyfood@hannahharleywww.crazysexyfood.comMusic by @casnova____I am so excited to be partnering up with Gorillas again this season!

What a character Rosemary Shrager is! Be prepared to laugh your way through this episode with her infectious laugh and wonderful sense of humour!She talks all about her new book – her first novel aptly named The Last Supper and the story behind the story. We bond over being introverted extroverts (if you can believe that!) and I ask her whether she’s suffered from any prejudice as a self-taught female chef.She opens up about her long-standing friendship with Pierre Koffmann and working under him in his kitchen – and she finds him quite sexy! You heard it here first!!!Rosemary’s beautiful energy and positive attitude to life made her time on I’m A Celebrity a little easier than others. She loved it in fact! And used the experience as a way to lose weight!@rosemaryshrager@crazysexyfood@hannahharleywww.crazysexyfood.comMusic by @casnova____I am so excited to be partnering up with Gorillas again this season!

What a charming chap musician Jack Savoretti is! It had been a long time coming but we finally sat down to talk all about his Italian heritage, childhood family dinners and some of his naughty food vices!He’s currently on tour so we talk all about finally being out there performing live, his new album, Europiana and he opens up about the music industry; the difficulties he overcame, the time he was asked to change his name as it wasn’t “British” enough (!) and he discusses stepping away from the industry.This conversation felt very full circle to me – I was first introduced to Jack in 2012 when I was taken to his concert in Shepherds Bush – close to where I live now! We end the chat realising we may be soulmates – but you’ll need to listen to find out!!@jacksavoretti@crazysexyfood@hannahharleywww.crazysexyfood.comMusic by @casnova____I am so excited to be partnering up with Gorillas again this season!

When I started Crazy Sexy Food, I wrote a list of dream guests I’d love to have on. If you’d seen it, you would have laughed and told me “Yeah Right!”.So, when I got the call a couple weeks ago that Nobu Matsuhisa was in town to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Nobu London Park Lane, and he was doing a select number of interviews and that CSF was in the running I could not believe it!But here we are. And here I was, in this episode, sitting down with the man himself discussing his life in food, dealing with childhood trauma, setting up his business 50 years ago and his meeting with Robert De Niro.Nobu is a gentle but very fun man. He was so incredibly open and hospitable; this really has been the greatest honour. He eloquently discussed the hardships in his life, namely when one of his restaurants burnt down and he lost everything. This in turn lead to depression and suicidal thoughts.He managed to use his inner strength and family support to start again, and here we are, all these years later, and he’s still at the helm of the global empire!This was an honour of the highest level, and being in Nobu’s presence is something I will never forget.I hope you enjoy this chat as much as I did recording it.@therealnobu@crazysexyfood@hannahharleywww.crazysexyfood.comMusic by @casnova____I am so excited to be partnering up with Gorillas again this season!

Crystelle Pereira is the rising star we all need to know about. If you’re an avid GBBO then you’ll know exactly who she is! Not only is she my first ever GBBO contestant, but she came over for baclava and a glass water (!) and gave me in inside scoop of how the show works, what it’s like to film in secret for 6 weeks and her favourite bakes from the season.We touch on her Goan Portuguese heritage where she explains the cuisine - did you know Vindaloo originates from Goa?! Me neither.We discuss Focaccia-gate! And talk about how we are never in control of things in life and that everything happens for a reason.Crystelle is at the beginning of her career and I predict great things for this gorgeous woman!

I am FINALLY joined by my first world champion boxer this week! Lawrence Okolie sat down with me just after retaining his WBO Cruiserweight title (well, not literally straight after, but you know what I mean!).He may have zoomed in from his bed (!), but the champion spoke all about growing up in a Nigerian household and how he STILL doesn’t know how to make jollof rice, his unique success story and his book, Dare to Change Your Life.He opens up about his relationship with food as a child; he was overweight and bullied and sought comfort in food and we bond over the fact we both used to skive of off school sports.As an athlete, he explains how he structures his time in the lead up to a fight, sparring with Anthony Joshua and why he decided to become vegan!@lawrenceokolie@crazysexyfood@hannahharleywww.crazysexyfood.comMusic by @casnova____I am so excited to be partnering up with Gorillas again this season!

This week I have a true showbiz superstar joining me, Mr Martin Kemp! He’s done it all; music, TV, film and even GBBO!He popped over and talked all about his time in Spandau Ballet, and the huge success they had overnight. He commends his time on Eastenders, where he played bad boy Steve Owen as saving his life after a very traumatic experience with a brain tumour. The man is still as gorgeous as he was when he first entered the limelight, and is showing no signs of stopping! He discusses how he loves working with his family; namely his son Roman, a successful presenter, and his wife Shirley (who he adores!), who was part of Wham!Food wise, Martin explains the importance of a certain pie and mash shop near where he grew up in Islington and why Bounty bars are SO important to him!!@martinjkemp@crazysexyfood@hannahharleywww.crazysexyfood.comMusic by @casnova____I am so excited to be partnering up with Gorillas again this season!
