- So much sad news going on now with Prince William and Harry in the media right now. In this video I look back to happy times, when the boys were best friends and I cooked for them at Kensington Palace and share one of their favorite dishes Spaghetti Bolognese.
There are many different recipes for this dish, some add red wine some don't use the sofrito. This is the recipe I cooked for William and Harry and also the one I cook at home for my family. I hope you and your family enjoy it too.
My two cookbooks Eating Royally and The Royal Chef at Home are now both available around the world as E-Books, click here to find out more... theroyalchef.paystation.online

Spaghetti Bolognese
Serves 4
2 Tbsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves , minced
2 sticks of celery, finely diced
1 large carrot, grated
1 onion , finely chopped
1 lb / 500g beef mince / ground beef
2 beef bouillon cubes or 1 TBS better than bouillon or 2 TBS powdered beef bouillon
800g or 28 oz can crushed tomato (or fine diced tomatoes)
2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 TBS flour
Salt and pepper
Heat the oil in a large pot or deep skillet over medium high heat. Add the onion, carrots, celery and garlic, cook for 3 -5 minutes or until light golden and softened.
Turn up the heat to high and add the beef. Cook, breaking it up as your go, until browned.
Add the flour and stir. Add the tomatoes, Worcestershire sauce and bouillon.
Bring to a simmer then turn down to medium so it bubbles gently. Cook for 25 - 30 minutes with a lid on stirring occasionally, adding a little water if the sauce gets too thick. Season with salt and pepper.
Serve with spaghetti or your favorite pasta or over rice. And garnish with grated Parmesan cheese.

It’s so sweet how he’s referring to William and Harry as his boys. Its like he’s a proud uncle talking about his nephew’s.
I think he says “the boys” 😊
Oh, yes, I was going to write about the exact same thing as yourself. So sad that the brothers are so, seemingly, behind each end of a giant wall. I have a brother myself I'd wish more contact with We should all learn to forgive each otherl
Good for you, Darren. You are 100% correct to NOT get involved in the mess that now exists. Love your sharing the dishes you prepared for the royal family😊👍
Well he has gotten involved subtly in the title: Prince William.... & Harry. Not Princes plural. A+
Prince Harry loves your cooking 👍👍😂🤣
It’s literally just a fight between two brothers but of course it’s not seen that way because white people are racist.

Not getting involved/tapping into the zeitgeist for monetised views.
I wish this man had his own TV show, he is too precious. We must preserve him at all costs!!
He had his own CZcams channel that's better than TV..
Lets freeze him and make clones
I love to hear stories about spoilt brats. It’s showing through now that they can’t hide.
But how? Salting? Smoking? Pickling? Fermenting???
He's dead now.😮
I can't get over how this chef can cut veggies without looking! True master.
Practice makes perfect
@@hestergreen2031 Julia Child did the same thing and instructs on how to chop like that. Lots of practice and I think it helps to have a counter of the right height.
It's a good interview trick. Put a cook in a kitchen and watch the knife skills, give him a blunt knife and see how he reacts. It tells you everything you need to know and will eliminate 99% of candidates.
I can do that and I am not a chef. It is not hard with enough practice. I mean you just tuck your fingers back and keep the knife pressed against your finger while cutting
@@hestergreen2031p
You are such a nice, kind, gentle, humorous and wise man, and so respectful, and lovingly protective of Princess Diana and the boys. God bless you and your wonderful family. I am glad we have you on this side of the pond.
Harry Gave this Up…. What a douche…
Isn’t he amazing lol I love listening to him I love hearing stories about Diana and the boys god bless him has a beautiful heart
So proud of Darren for not involving himself in the drama
My mother made spaghetti on Thursday! It was my favorite day of the week! Dad would pick up a nice loaf of French bread. Sometimes we had a salad but often not. Mom tended to make the same dishes each day of the week. Friday was shrimp, 4 pounds for a dollar. 1948~Sunday was a roast. Cheers everybody
4 pounds to the dollar? Wow
We had spaghetti every single week when I was growing up. My father was half Italian and we had marinara with meatballs. We usually had it on Mondays or Tuesday but I can smell my moms homemade sauce on the stove 50 years later.
Make meal planning a breeze, to do that!
@@soniadowney7427 I remember going to the store for my older sister. For one dollar she would get a loaf of bread, a quart of buttermilk, a quart of "sweet milk" and a pack of cigarettes with 3 cents change. There was no tax on food back then.
@@nancysmith6685 amazing
This is actual content and what CZcams should be for... 99% of channels don't come close to this in terms of originality, insight, class, and comfort!
Aww, thank you Aarron
Whatya Mean?!.....We can't forget the Cooking with Jack show. So insiteful, so professional and such great foo......🤢🤮. Sorry, couldn't think of Jack without being sick. I would love to see this man review a Cooking with Jack show video.
It's great, but 99% of channels don't have a royal chef at their disposal.
I can't believe how you just slice and chop away without looking down at your fingers and what you're doing! Amazing level of intuition
You could learn how to do this in 10 minutes. You just have the knife pressed up against your knuckle and tuck in the rest of your fingers. It's not hard.
One of his fingers is in the cooked spaghetti
The best spaghetti bolognese I've had was in the least likely of places. At Legoland near Carlsbad, CA, there is a pizza/pasta buffet restaurant. Everything in the buffet was fresh and mostly organic from what they advertised in the restaurant. The spaghetti bolognese was out of this world and when I went for seconds, the chef was there at the buffet stand and asked me if I liked it. Now I am not a connoisseur, but I told him it was amazing. He said that all the vegetables were organic and locally acquired and he had been simmering the bolognese for 8 hours that morning. I don't know if it's still like that now, but watching you make this brought back that memory. I love your channel.
Great comment. Thank you.
Lovely to hear a genuine effort made. The dish is always improved, if the sauce is mixed with the pasta.
10 quid says any Spaghetti Bolognese made in a council house in the UK is a million times better than what you had in “ Lego land “ lmfao
Take the Worcester Sauce out of it ! WTF ?
@@liamsheen5629 A grand says Brits have zero business knocking "legoland" over Italian food. Let's leave the critique to the Darren.
I enjoy watching you every time, you are one beautiful man. God Bless and Happy cooking ❤
From Alberta Canada
I saw my dad who descend from a long lineage of French chefs (even tho he was never professional) cutting and he passed that onto me from an early age. You sir, may have the finest knife skills I have ever seen! Your ability to carry the conversation looking into the camera (or as I imagine your royal guest's eyes) while cutting with such precision and speed is astounding. Immediate notice of the uneven cut as well, all while telling stories and teaching the recipe. A royal chef for sure!
Is this guy an idiot? Red wine in bolognese has NO ALCOHOL ... the alcohol molecules cook off in less than 60 seconds. Knows nothing about cookin this mook.
Love your show. It's evidence that you can be successful telling beautiful stories about the family.
I can only imagine how much fun they had with this guy, he seems really nice.
I love this type of food, and I'm going to make it some time soon. Thanks.
I just made this dish. It's still simmering. I added more carrots and I had some imported Italian sauce, very simple ingredients, instead of the tomatoes. It's going to be delish this way as well. I'll try it with tomatoes and wine next.
Team William here.
I hope they both watch you now. It's nice to hear stories of the "good old days" with the boys and in the RF. This looks delicious.
My favorite chef of all time!
I love your videos, thank you for taking the time to make them and share your stories and talent with us all.❤️
I just discovered this channel. I am a chef myself with nearly 20 years on my back. In cooking school we got to hear stories of the legendary royal chefs. So i basically just learned that one of the people i look up to in my job makes videos and super sympathic in doing so. Much love!
The Royal family was so happy grateful to have you part of there family and making them such beautiful delicious food ❤
They wasn't happy to have anyone
Darren, you are so cute and pleasant. I so love your delicious recipes. Thank you!!!
Hi pretty lady. How are you doing today? And how is the weather over there???
Inspiring as always Chef Darren! I made this for the kids and myself this evening, it was greatly appreciated. I also use flower in the “bol”, it makes it better. I also drop a few tablespoons of cream in the bol towards the end, it really helps tie the bol together for me.
Thank you for all the videos and I love the stories you share! 😊
My mum has a very similar way of making that. I can never seem to get it just right like she does. Absolutely fantastic
Darren, I really do enjoy all your recipes, but added to that, your stories related to the royal family are truly priceless! Take care and I look forward to the next video.
I love watching your recipes with your royal insights and stories. My bolognese recipe I haven't made it in a while because it's summer in Australia but do;
beef and pork, sofrito+garlic, bay leaf and parsley, A can of crushed tomatoes and tomato paste and beef stock.
It's beautiful and is obviously topped of with Parmesan (Parmigiano Reggiano cheese)
Oh Daren I just love your anecdotes. You're my grandpa of heart ❤️ plus the meal looks absolutely yummy 😋
Winston seems to always get the last laugh 😊🐾💕
Love your stories ❤ Thankyou for all your recipes and sharing with us your incredible memories 💘
It's interesting to see how the British Royalty does enjoy some more basic foods. Everyone loves a good spag bol, I reckon. Great video, as always. ^^ Thank you, Darren.
The Italians I know would say it was far from basic, one makes the best I have tasted. It takes 2 days.
I don't
@@WeAreThePeople1690 the Italian bolognese and the UK version aren’t even the same, to us it is basic.
@@liamsheen5629 I think any food can be amazing if prepared right, rather than basic, it's just lazy cooking. I think a lot of people are to tired to put energy into cooking. You have to acually learn it. Most will just chuck anything together without understanding what they're doing.
British taste buds are basic. More so the royalty.
Kudos to you chef for taking the high road in this situation! Enjoyed your story and recipe! Cant wait to try it!
First time having Spag Bol was with my childhood penpal in Yorkshire ❤ of course as an American I have spaghetti and sauce and parmesan cheese all the time. But Spag Bol is just that little bit different, and wonderful. Thanks for sharing your memories of happier times with the boys
I am American and made this dish weekly. I used to make a large batch so my children's friends could also eat. It was a favorite! I think I may make a much smaller amount for dinner tomorrow. It's just my husband and I now. 😊 Thank you for sharing your recipe and stories. Have a lovely day!
Darren, I love your recipes and your stories. This must be a particularly sad time for you having known William and Harry in their youth and to see the state of their relationship now. Great video!
Hi pretty lady: how are you doing today? And how is the weather over there??
YOUR THE BEST DARREN ❤
I LOVE YOUR COOKING EPISODES!! I frequently re-watch the older episodes as well. You are just a really nice fellow as well - it shines forth with your fun and warm personality. Happy Cooking and Baking!!
Thank you for sharing this and you should be on the air ……empathy, compassion is much needed everywhere in the world 🥰🙌🏼❤️
After watching several of your videos that were more than a year old I was delighted to see this very recent video. Chef Darren you are an absolute delight to watch and a fabulous chef. 😊
Hi pretty lady Susanne. How are you doing today? And how is the weather over there??
“Spaggy Bol” haha, I thought this was going to be an old Welsh or Scottish dish, judging by the name! I had no idea it was short for “Spaghetti Bolognese”😂. Your recipe looks better than mine! Thanks for sharing Chef!
Funny, I thought it was going to be an Irish version! It was at one stage in my opinion heading for cottage pie, but I suppose if using minced meat, most recipes are related.
@@smiley9872 the Brits have nicknames for everything don’t they!
In Australia we call it spag bowl 🤤
I've never heard it called spaggy bol in the UK. Always spag bol.
That is so sweet of you to share your stories. I'm so pleased they behaved just as I imagined. God bless you 🙏❤
Good day Darren, looks great! Thanks for the warm stories of William and Harry and sharing one of their favorite meals. You were a great addition to their childhood! Bless you!💕
Well, thank God for you, Darren for posting this video with positive accounts about the boys. It’s all much needed now more than ever. Your spag bol looks delish, sometimes I add a little chopped red bell pepper for sweetness along with the celery onion and garlic. Cheers!
For me its often an end of the week/ before i go shopping "clean up any random veg" sort of dish... some extra bell pepper, throw it in, any spare tomatoes.. cut to a suitable size, throw it in.. some spinach leaves from a salad bag, chuck it in... even had some fresh peas in there on occasion.. not always the same but a great way to use up random bits in the kitchen
You always make most beautiful dishes and piece of artwork to eat ❤😊❤
Thank you for your positive, uplifting spirit. You made me cry for them, and the happier times we all shared. You give me hope. God bless you.
Lovely dish, Darren...and Winston is back in the kitchen, simply great!
My mum used to make a great “spag Bol”
Base sauce was finely chopped onion, garlic, tinned tomatoes, 1 oxo cube and gravy granules (very meaty flavour).
She reduced that down then added the beef mince. Was so good
Thank you, Darren! This is hands down the absolute best bolognese we have ever made! My husband and I love the simple recipe which has become an instant family favorite. 🙂
Loved to hear your experience with them. Hope the good times will prevail above all things that set them apart. The food must be delicious ❤
DARREN -- THANK YOU FOR SHARING--- AND I JUST LOVE ❤️ YR CALMNESS WHILE YOU EXPLAIN HOW YOU COOK THINGS--- 🍳 YR AN EXPERT OLD CHAPPY ---- A ROYAL EXPERT AT ITS BEST ---
Even if I were a monarchist in Darren's position, I imagine I would still be thankful that appreciation of my efforts is more-or-less unattached from whatever pandemonium is going on with the Royal Family at the time...
My dad was a chef and his ragout bolognese was out of this world-. He would add well browned finely chopped champignon to the meat (and if he felt fancy, he would slow braise chunks of beef to be totally authentic) and he was not shy about the wine, lol, and actually added milk. My mom was amazing at cooking as well, and her Dane-ified recipe might not have been authentic but omg the combination of those two recipes is a family treasure!
Adding milk is perfectly OK. It tenderises the meat.
@@paulhollis8879 it isn't just "ok" it's required.
@@danm8004 Thank you, dear.
That looks so yummy! I love how you can talk to us as you're dicing those veggies. Thank you, Darren :) ♥
Greetings from Indianapolis. Just discovered you, and I have to say, you're a breath of fresh air! You have a great sense of humor, and you're videos are fun to watch. Also, I appreciate the soft Jazz in the background, none of that blazing, booming bubblashita! Ha!
It seems like we all have to reflect on the good olden days with the way the world has become . Thanks for the video I can see how much the boys meant to you
Mm, great recipe and great thoughts you've shared. Thank you. Keep cooking Chef! :) Always a pleasure to see your videos pop up.
That looks so good. I could eat a plate right even though I just finished dinner!
Until today I didn't have a name for it. I have been making this for years with exactly the same ingredients. In the past year I use Organic Grass Fed 93/7 ground beef. Perhaps a few more spices. Use macaroni noodles though. It's a dish that you can't stay out of. Love your videos.
Made this tonight, added more spices: sweet basil, thyme, oregano, and rosemary. Deleted the flour and to thicken added tomato paste. Tasty. I grated the carrots like you demonstrated and will continue this going forward. Thank you for sharing.
This is cute and kind. “Others”who were close to the boys and the Princess appear endlessly on morning television throwing mud. But I love that you stay neutral and remind us of the happier times. I’m sure their mother would be/is grateful for your positivity; and keeping her memory alive.
These are great, you’re a joy to watch. I very much enjoyed your full breakfast video. As an American I have been long fascinated by eel pie, would love to see that one next 😂
Darren .. YOU are a TRUE gentleman .. THANK YOU .. for being 100% what an "English Gentleman" is ..
It's 1:30 in the afternoon, about to sleep for the day. Then, Darren posts. I guess sleep is overrated. And now I'm hungry too.
Looks amazing and I loved your story of the boys and sweeter days!
Thank you, just amazing stories, I'm going to make this recipe this weekend.
I love watching your videos chef . I actually make Bolognese very close to yours, I am pleased to say. I do a couple things which I am sure are not traditional. I add tomato paste for a little sweetness and lots of basil along with the oregano. I also add a little cream. I'm going to try that flour trick! I'm glad that you have these wonderful, fond memories of the brothers. Because when you strip everything away that's what they are and will always be- Brothers. Thank you for sharing! PS sorry about your thwarted water gun attack! That would have been something to see.
Absolutely looks and sounds DELICIOUS 😋
Mcgrady you sir are a breath of fresh air, thank you so very much for your special recipes and cherished memories. Happy New Year! 🇬🇧 🌊🇺🇸 🎆
Nices to hear good times they had together and you are lucky you met them
Thank you for this video Chef Darren! I admit it is an appropriate timing with the news of the two princes not on the same page. I used to make spag bol with turkey or lamb mince and when I was young my mum used to make tagliatelle pasta with mince instead of spaghetti. Sacrilege? Probably. Delicious? It definitely was. I'm being optimistic but I hope one day the princes do watch this for the good memories and one day reconcile.
Sacrilege? Quite the opposite, as Darren says in the video, spaghetti bolognese isn’t a thing in Italy. Bolognese ragu is traditionally served with tagliatelle or as a lasagne so you are being more authentic. Spaghetti is from the south of Italy and Bolognese ragu is from the north (Bologna) so the two didn’t meet. What Darren makes here is a traditional bolognese ragu and a traditional British (and probably other countries) spag bol. Both are delicious no right or wrong, for spag bol I prefer the non Italian version but for a lasagne you can’t beat the traditional ragu sauce.
I share your sentiments regarding William and Harry. 😢 I trust in time they can settle their differences. This dish looks awesome! I’m not much of a cook, but I want to try this!! 😋
It wont happen until meghan divorces harry. I give it 4 yrs
I always enjoy your tales of the Royal family, especially those about the Queen. I'll bet you have some cherished memories!
This looks absolutely delicious!
I make a slightly different version of this and it's delicious. I could honestly eat this every day. In my version, I make a garlic/yogurt dip and pour it on top of the meat sauce with egg noodles (or any type of pasta you have on hand). It's a fake version of Turkish manti. Anyway, the meat sauce is fatty ground beef, sauteed onions in olive oil with a small pat of butter, minced garlic, salt, pepper, oregano and diced tomato's, slow simmered so the sauce is loose, add a drop of water from the rinsed diced tomato can if the meat sauce gets too thick. I'm going to try Darren's version tomorrow, it looked very good.
It's been a staple in our family for over 4 decades. It's varied a bit over that time but has mostly been a less authentic recipe as we generally haven't put carrot or celery in. Ours is made with extra lean mince (5% fat), good quality tinned tomatoes, sometimes the ones with some garlic and olive in them from Waitrose. Sometimes we add tomato puree. We add some finely chopped garlic which we now use frozen, also from Waitrose. What I think we've always done different is put fried mushrooms in or kept them to one side and springled on top. Occasionally we've put some white wine in too. Usually we've not got parmesan so have used extra mature cheddar.
wonderful to see you back with cooking and memories
I just made this, following your recipe exactly, and it was quite tasty. Hearty, delicious, elegant in it's simplicity.
I have also made your crispy chicken and both of these recipes turned out wonderfully.
Can't wait to try the Mac and cheese!
Thank you for the fine work, sir!
Sweat celery, Carrots, and onions in olive oil, then 1/2 glass of red wine. Pork Mince and Beef mince follow, until just browned, then add another 1/2 glass of red wine. Tin of good tomato, passata, and tomato paste. Let that slowly bubble for an hour, then check seasoning, add 750mls of boiling water and let it bubble for another hour, then check, stir, another 750ml of water, and bubble away. Just before serving store through a cup of whole milk.
Sounds delicious!
Now that is a dish for the gods!
I made this for me and my dad the other day, and fair to say, it was absolutely delicious
So Chef Darren, I'm back rewatching this recipe because now my grandkids are here and get to have this too❤️ thank you again.
It’s interesting to see a professional chef cook family food without a hint of irony. The most important thing about cooking is being able to nourish and show your loved ones that you care. In the case of kids that means food that’s healthy, simple, quick and a bit fun which is why spag bol is such a staple around the world.
Now that I’m older I make spag bol in a more complicated way because I appreciate the flavour but after a day running around outside as a kid I never cared about any of that and the basic version would have hit the spot so much more than the rich complex food I make now sometimes.
I think there’s something sweet and wise in there for all of us.
We cook our spaghetti Bolognese for 3 hours on a low simmer. We don’t use the Worcester sauce or wheat flour (I’m coeliac) but we do use a little red wine and all the other ingredients. It’s important to really cook that sauce through. 36 minutes isn’t enough. Our Italian Nonna would cry if she saw it being Cooked with flour and for 36 minutes.
Nonna knows best!
Thank you for the video!:) Cheers, Elizabeth
I love the recipes, history and fond memories of the royal family. 🥰💐💚🧡
Hello, Chef Darren. My family’s bolognese is just a bit different. We start as you do with the trinity of onions, carrots & celery in EVOO. Add lots of crushed garlic, but then also add diced green pepper, sliced white button mushrooms & quartered baby bella mushrooms. Then we add equal parts ground beef and Italian sausage with the casings removed. We do add red wine-because the alcohol cooks off-and if it doesn't: BONUS! hahaha! Then its time for the crushed tomatoes, diced tomatoes, chopped fresh basil, oregano, and just a sprinkling of red pepper flakes to give the sauce some zip. Let that simmer down. The 2 kinds of mushrooms & tomatoes provide different textures. Mama (my grandmother) served it the next day so that the flavors had time to meld. Top with pecorino reggiano mmmm!
EDIT: Yikes! I forgot. We add a pinch of nutmeg too when adding the spices. And before letting the sauce simmer, add in just a touch of milk or cream to reduce the acidity.
It's surprising how most things are are better with nutmeg, it's the bacon of spices!!
Sounds so delicious
That sounds great. A big YES to the mushrooms. And I couldn't agree more with Mama. I never serve my sauce the same day. In fact I always make a big batch, then portion it out and freeze it. It stays great for months.
Add a couple of mashed anchovies and some rinsed green capers towards the end.
Divine
we thank you for sharing these wonderful dishes
Thank You so much Chef Darren I sppreciate you !
Hello Darren I,m a fellow retired Chef and my method of making Bolognaise is pretty similar to yours starting with the diced onion carrot and sometimes celery I also add crushed Garlic and a Bayleaf mainly because I have a tree in my Garden,add Tinned Tomatoes and Tomato Puree don,t always add Oregano as a chef I worked with who was very good never did,then some made up Beef stock from a cube then finish in my slow cooker thicken if needed with gravy granules
Looks similar to how I make it but I caramelize the onions and roast a whole bulb of garlic first and then add it. I also use crushed tomatoes instead of diced. And I add salt, pepper, basil and parsley. 🥰 Thanks for doing this video Darren. With all the nonsense going on with Harry these days, it's nice to see you remember a time when they were happy boys who got along.
Thanks for the tips. Will try it like your recipe.
Excellent recipe. Thank you. Watching your videos always brightens my days.
Spaghetti Bolognese was served at many restaurants that I visited in Greece in the early 2000's...maybe not popular in Italy, but definitely in Greece...love the video and will be trying the recipe soon!
Thank you, Chef. This was the most positive video about the brothers amidst the ‘circus.’
I made a similar dish for my son the vegetable hater he would say once you get past the colour then there is the taste so I added spinach carefully making sure not to add to much because the green red colour could be a dead giveaway that I was experimenting he never noticed as the onions tomato passsta and carrots and all the spices successfully hid my shenanigans. Thank you for inspiring my trip down memory lane
I love you a left handed chef Hallelujah BIG THUMBS UP ON THIS VIDEO
Glad I found this video looking forward to more of your recipes
I appreciate that you chose not to say anything regarding the Princes. Thanks for showing us how to make spagi bol. Im going to try it tour way! Looks delicious!
You're right Darren to not get involved in the feud between William and Harry. It's so unbelievably toxic for every party involved, and the tabloids are having the time of their life "reporting" on it. Hopefully William or Harry will stumble on this video and get to fondly remember their childhood
That looks delicious. I'm saving this recipe.
Lovely meals and great chef with great stories thrown in
Ever since learning to finish the pasta in another pan with the sauce and a bit of pasta water, I've never changed. But that doesn't mean you can't serve that mixture of pasta and sauce... and then top it with MORE sauce of course :) And that''s how I always do it. It's been a while since I made this with the carrots and celery mixed in, maybe it's about time!
I picked the perfect day to make it: an unexpected bit of snow here in the Northeast and a rough wind to boot. I made my way back home in double the time it normally takes since no road had been treated. I went to the grocery store next to where I work and got the ingredients I needed. For my own flare I added red chili flakes - I need some sortof spice in my pasta sauce. It is the perfect annoying-weather winter's night meal, and I am nice and stuffed, a glass of red whine and peppermint cookies from Christmas for dessert. I'll have to work it all off tomorrow. Delicious, thank you. XD
I made ragu ala bolognese 2 days ago and I tried a new ingredient: chicken liver
Finely pureed in a food processor and mixed into the browned meat, it gave the sauce a very deep, meaty flavor without making it taste like liver. It's a really good addition!
Darren seems like a sweet guy, a really good chef with a terrific personality!🍳🥕
