7: An Asian Who's Forgotten His Culture - ft. Sunil Patel Nov 07, 2019

Show notes

We all have that friend, the Asian friend who is maybe not very asian at all and no matter how much we try to bring them back into the light, they are too far gone into the western world and will forever remain a banana or coconut! Well, this week's guest is just that, comedian Sunil Patel lives with Evelyn and he is probably the whitest asian we've ever met! In this episode, Evelyn takes the opportunity to air some grievances from their co-habitation whilst Nigel desperately tries to find the most asian thing about Sunil. We talk about Sunil's Gujarat roots, Evelyn's asian cooking and why asians wrap everything in plastic!?
Go follow Sunil (@sunilpatelsolutions) on Instagram and (@SunilDPatel) Twitter and listen to his very funny podcasts Why is Harriet Crying? w. comedian Harriet Kemsley on spotify and iTunes and "Where are You Really From?" that he co-hosts with former R2MU-guest Eshaan Akbar on BBC Sounds!

6: Why I Hate the Term 'Authentic Asian Food' - ft. Mandy Yin Oct 31, 2019

Show notes

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 😂)
