On this episode, I sit down with the brilliant Jen Lin Liu - published author, a trained chef, and owner of the popular Black Sesame Kitchen cooking school in Beijing!

We talk all about her beginnings in Beijing as a journalist which sparked her interest in food - more so, how food can give you a better understanding of a new place and connect you to its people.

Determined to master the culinary arts, we discuss her time at a Chinese cooking school where she met her mentors turned business partners.

We discover some of her highlights from the 6,000-mile journey behind her book 'On the Noodle Road' where she takes on the challenge of figuring out which came first ...the noodle or the spaghetti (pasta)!

The ultimate foodie, its hard not to be inspired by Jen's passion and creativity.
