Food-Family-Friends-1

Introducing Vanessa our host who says MasterChef was a life-changing experience and after the competition ended, there was no point going back to life post MasterChef as it had been before. Vanessa has now combined everything she loves and thrown it together into a package which encompasses bringing people together around food.

Vanessa is a strong example of living life to the full and has always held the belief that life should not be bound by rules but should be attacked with vision and energy and loads of passion.

Think teenagers have no opinion about food and relationships?

Think again, with this introductory episode where Vanessa interviews her own teenage sons and weaves in stories of their globetrotting life as expatriates and how food nourished their frienships with others along the way.
