Crazy Sexy Food X Taste Special Series: Vivek Singh

I’m joined by the formidable woman that is Asma Khan. Asma was the first British chef to appear on Netflix’s Chef’s Table and has been at the forefront of Indian cooking in the UK. Her restaurant, Darjeeling Express has taken on many personas and locations since she first opened – more on that in the episode. Her cooking is exciting, but also touches on the traditional inspiration of her country. Asma speaks up a lot about females in the hospitality world and is an advocate for promoting an even playing field. It was a joy to have her back on for a double dip!

Today is not only the tenth and final episode of the season (sad times!!) but it’s a special episode, recorded all the way from Sri Lanka!! I was kindly taken to this beautiful country before Christmas with Pepper & Seed PR to travel round four of the seven properties in the Teardrop Hotels collection. These stunning boutique hotels range from 4-bedroom houses nestled in the tea country, all the way to 18-bedroom properties in the heart of Galle.  In this episode I sit down with Teardop’s CEO, Henry Fitch to talk all about the portfolio, Sri Lankan food, the tea industry and how he found himself in Sri Lanka in the first place!   This was the most magical trip and I wanted to say a huge thank you to Teardrop for their generosity, Pepper & Seed PR for organsing the trip and Sri Lankan Airlines for getting us there and back!    @teardrop_hotels @crazysexyfood @hannahharley www.crazysexyfood.com   Music by @casnova____   I’m so excited to be partnering with Cheffie on Season 11 of the podcast.    Cheffie is not just a platform; it's a dining revolution.

I’m joined by cheeky chap, Calum Harris, this week who popped over to talk all things vegan, why he turned vegan, why he isn’t preachy about being a vegan and his new cookbook, Proper Healthy! We covered it all; his childhood and what he ate growing up, why he loves a ham crisp (!!!!) and why TikTok is better than Instagram! Controversial!  He even brought me food! Delicious chocolate and pistachio cups with crunchy Weetabix bases.

This week I’m joined by Candice Brown, the winner and star from The Great British Bake Off, pub landlady of The Greenman in Eversholt, charity campaigner and all round great girl! We sat down just before the Christmas madness and spoke all about her experience on Bake Off, how it changed her life and catapulted her career, and the path she has travelled since. Candice is brutally honest about dealing with negative press, online trolls and also opened up about her diagnosis of ADHD and dealing with mental health. Candice is a real force of nature and a huge talent and I thoroughly enjoyed this no-holds barred conversation!   @candicebrown @crazysexyfood @hannahharley www.crazysexyfood.com   Music by @casnova____   I’m so excited to be partnering with Cheffie on Season 11 of the podcast.    Cheffie is not just a platform; it's a dining revolution.

I’ve finally got Poppy on the sofa! This week I’m joined by the Potato Queen herself, Poppy Cooks aka Poppy O’Toole. The social media sensation joined to talk all about her new book, The Actually Delicious Slow Cooker Cookbook, how COVID was the pivotal turn in her life, how she became “viral” and how she creates the brilliant content she puts out. I’ve known Poppy for several years now, and watching her grow has been so wonderful to watch. She’s the most down to earth, humble, lovely woman and is as hilarious in real life as she is online. I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did!   @poppy_⁠⁠cooks⁠⁠ ⁠⁠@crazysexyfood⁠⁠ ⁠⁠@hannahharley⁠⁠ ⁠⁠www.crazysexyfood.com⁠⁠   Music by ⁠⁠@casnova____⁠⁠   I’m so excited to be partnering with Cheffie on Season 11 of the podcast.    Cheffie is not just a platform; it's a dining revolution.

Today I’m joined by one of the best chefs of our generation, Theo Randall. As the chef proprietor at Theo Randall at the InterContinental in London, he is cooking up some of the best Italian foodn out there. He came over for a chat and we covered it all. Why Italian cookery is just so good, his favourite regional cuisines, earning his stripes (and the Michelin Star!) at The River Café, and we bond over seriously gourmet childhood sandwiches! I really loved Theo’s down to earth nature and true knowledge of cookery. His new cookbook, Verdura, is out now.   @theo.randall @crazysexyfood @hannahharley www.crazysexyfood.com   Music by @casnova____   I’m so excited to be partnering with Cheffie on Season 11 of the podcast.    Cheffie is not just a platform; it's a dining revolution.

This week comes one of the most inspirational stories you will hear. I’m joined by Jon Watts, who, at the age of 18 found himself in prison. During his time inside, he turned his life around, completed all 3 levels of the Duke of Edinburgh Award and was released as a full qualified chef. He worked at Jamie Oliver’s Italian restaurant before going on to set up his street food stall and catering business. He is now the proud writer of Speedy Weeknight Meals and is a public speaker for various organisations focussing on young offenders and rehabilitation. This is a story that will blow your mind and perhaps see young offenders in a different light; that there is room for growth, second chances and a better life.   @jonwatts88 @crazysexyfood @hannahharley www.crazysexyfood.com   Music by @casnova____   I’m so excited to be partnering with Cheffie on Season 11 of the podcast.    Cheffie is not just a platform; it's a dining revolution.
