Guess what’s on fire? That’s right, the planet is. You can also add ‘The Kitchen’ to that flaming hot list. I feel like I’ve made that joke before. I’d look back and check but I can’t. I am a shark and I cannot reverse. This week The TickyOff Boyz utterly fail to deliver an intro to the episode. This is because they were in the pub. Sometimes, these things happen. I’d apologise but to be honest, water meet underside of the bridge. Bygones. Etc. Anyway you don’t need an intro when you’ve got Selin Kiazim in the house* *It’s not a house. It’s an office. Just for full disclosure. Selin tells all about how she ended up owning and running two (and a half) restaurants, writing a cookbook and appearing on ‘Great British Menu’. There’s Peter Gordon at The Providores chat, modernising the food of her childhood discussion and operating in a tricky business environment…..verbals. Meanwhile James drops an enormous jug of Bloody Mary mix on a train platform, Sam explains competitive hot-dog eating contest technicalities and Selin admits that the cooking show that inspired her to start cooking may well have involved a pair of legends known as The TickyOff Boyz of the early nineties, Gary Rhodes and Ainsley Harriot.
