Are you a cook?
As an events organiser I'm lucky to have meals cooked for me at functions around the country. My poor wife cooks just about every meal at home – she's such a star!
Any cooking tips?
Add salt to your toast before dunking in your boiled eggs.
What's your favourite dish?
Lamb curry with mushroom pilau, garlic naan and poppadoms – so I love events with a Bollywood theme.
And a drink to go with it?
A cool glass of Cobra.
Your favourite restaurant in the Sheffield area?
David and Pauline Baldwin have cooked for me all my life and I still love Baldwin's Omega.
And pub?
I love the family atmosphere that the guys have created at the Waggon & Horses in Millhouses.
What's the worst meal you've ever had?
Without hesitation it's the meals I make for myself. The meat is usually dry, the vegetables overcooked, the gravy luke warm – plus I never manage to time it so everything is ready at the same time.
And the best?
I had lobster thermidor once, overlooking a beach in Australia, with one of my best friends.
Your favourite TV cook?
My nephew and I watched Jamie Oliver's shows in the Nineties and I've always enjoyed his fun-loving approach to cooking. My nephew was only a nipper then and he has grown up to be a fantastic cook.
What do you think of Sheffield as a place to eat out?
My company is involved in events across the UK but I always love the cosmopolitan nature of Sheffield and I always consider it to be the best city in the world.
