The King Of Drum & Bass Live And Direct Cooking Up A Feast

 

Your perfect breakfast would be?

Two poached eggs on a bed of chopped leaves, one avocado chopped into quarters and melted cheese drizzled with Tabasco sauce on a toasted tortilla…and topped with cracked pepper layers with smoked salmon to finish.

The most unusual thing I have ever eaten…

In Texas I had alligator on a stick…

…and in Thailand I had some kind of bugs…not really me!

The dish that reminds me of my childhood…

When I used to go to family weddings I used love the curried goat but it used to be so hot, it used to burn the back outta me (if you get my meaning)…

Who taught you to cook?

My cousins Higgy and Tash showed me a few things but MC Navigator showed me how to really cook Jamaican food, otherwise I was self-taught.
