I don’t know how he did it......But he turned the lamb into butter - Action Bronson

I've had many messages come in over the last few days asking me about the latest dinner.

I prepared a Caribbean style Irish roast for some special guests.


It's always enlightening to be in the presence of greatness however it's much more enriching to be in the presence of sincerity.

We ate a Jamaican smoked black pudding stuffing ,
Caribbean Shepards pie , Dublin bay prawn soaked in roast yellow pepper and butter, Jerk Roast chicken & a 7 hour slow roasted Lamb leg which was "turned into butter ".

My mind has been changed about rosé for sure, turns out it goes great with the rice & peas.

You could "f*ck with the best of them" is a compliment that will gamble around my mind for remainder of my life

We ate well and took our time with no rush , toasted to each others paths well into the hours of the late night.

I want to wish everyone on the project fruitful success on the rest of the journey.

Looking forward to seeing the next season of @ Dublin, Ireland

Tales of trudging through the last few to the steps of Lil Portie

Sincere thanks to hearing me dive into the dimly lit corners of of the past that be attributed to the process of Lil Portie

Nick Reynold's Caribbean Kitchen 'Lil Portie' has proven to be a hit with Dubliners. Here he explains how he developed the idea to fuse the Jamaican recipes taught to him by his Nan with cooking techniques inspired by his travels in South America.
