POLOKWANE – “I love my cars just as much as I love good food. For me, a good meal has the ability to bring people together, uniting them and deepening bonds as loved ones share a meal. I often cook for my friends during our regular chill out sessions, over the weekends or when we are off from work. Cooking is and has always been my passion and I will enjoy it above all else. I call these chill out sessions, Chaf Radi’s cookout sessions where I share my mouth watering cooked-with-love-dishes with friends and family,” he explained.
He gave REVIEW readers a delicious Roast Chicken Recipe from #ChefRadiKitchen to try out.
