The panellists share how to keep their chef whites clean, savoury recipes involving mango and the parts of an animal they’d steer clear of. Situated just a stone’s throw from Leicester’s 'Golden Mile’, Belgrave Road, the panel is joined by Ashish Gosai from Sharmilee, one of the street's most enduring Gujarati restaurants.
