Summary
Welcome to HOOVERING, the podcast about eating. Host, Jessica Fostekew (Guilty Feminist, Motherland) has a frank conversation with an interesting person about gobbling; guzzling; nibbling; scoffing; devouring and wolfing all up… or if you will, hoovering.
This week I’m only being taken out to dinner by fucking Uncle Roger - or more accurately by his creator, comedian Nigel Ng. He’s a really good comedian but as if that’s not enough he’s a massive massive foodie and really knows his shit in terms of Asian, especially Malaysian food in London so I let him take the reigns. We ended up in Soho’s Laksamania and oh my fucking god it was one of the most, if not THE most, delicious hoovering I’ve ever ever EVER done on this podcast. Strap in.
