Why I Hate the Term 'Authentic Asian Food' - ft. Mandy Yin Rice To Meet You

    • Stand-Up

If you always wanted to know what it's like running an Asian restaurant, this is a MUST LISTEN episode! Master restauranteur Mandy Yin, who runs Malaysian laksa restaurant Sambal Shiok in London, talks about her humble street food beginnings, why she doesn't like the term "authentic Asian food", and what it's like giving up a high-flying corporate lawyer job to be a restaurateur.

Go follow Mandy's restaurant Sambal Shiok (@sambalshiok) on Instagram and Twitter, but most importantly, go to their sambalshiok.co.uk to make a reservation! You won't regret it, we promise!  Evelyn and I have been so many times. Laksa IS the king of noodles! (If you disagree, come on the podcast and we'll let you argue your point 😂)
