David Lakhi (Little Black Pig & Sons) - heart, soul & flavour
from Dirty Linen - A Food Podcast with Dani Valent · host A Deep in the Weeds Production
Are there any barriers to who can cook what cuisine? David Lakhi doesn't think so. He's the Indian-born chef of Heidelberg, Melbourne restaurant Little Black Pig & Sons and he stands behind the heart, soul and flavour of his Italian menu. David has been embraced by the community - they supported each other through lockdown after lockdown - but he's also been subject to gross and undermining racism. https://www.thestaffcanteen.com/Editorials-and-Advertorials/aktar-islam-kicks-back-at-the-notion-that-he-shouldn-t-be-able-to-cook-different-cuisines-on-the-basis-of-his-ethnicity https://www.littleblackpigandsons.com Follow Dirty Linen on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/deepintheweedspodcast/?hl=en Follow Dani https://www.instagram.com/danivalent Follow Deep In The Weeds on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/deepintheweedspodcast/?hl=en Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow Huck (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/
