To raise money for economic crisis in Sri Lanka @thuli94 compiled a charity e-cookbook with 16 recipes from Sri Lankan diaspora, ranging from beetroot and jackfruit curries, to love cake. I donated and downloaded; if you'd like to, here's the link: pol-boy.square.site

The team at Celestial Peach and @thuli94 have truly taught me to believe in people. They’ve never met us, but they ended up heading one of the biggest fundraisers for @eathappySL bringing in just short of 1 million rupees to feed 3800 people. I truly love and honor them ❤️
If you need a feel good story, you’ve come to the right place. Celestial Peach in UK, headed by the very talented and compassionate Jenny Lau, raised funds for Community Meal Share. Celestial Peach connects with people by using the power of food to bring communities together.

England, the USA AND IRAN in the same World Cup group? I'm sure their game will be handled with care and grace and mutual respect.

Island Grill in Dalston got closed down because the residents in the new build behind Dalson station were complaining about the smoke, and then the council got involved. A bad side of gentrification powering it's way through London n tearing down culture n peoples livelihood.

In the trailblazing @vittleslondon 2021’s top 10- perhaps the best piece written on Birmingham Balti in a decade, maybe ever. Nice to read it again @thuli94 🙌
Replying to @demarionunn
birmingham got some much needed representation in this reappraisal of the curry house by @thuli94 and how working class muslim chefs “managed to change the tastes of a nation – if not its prejudices” vittles.substack.com/p/tikka…

1st Dec must have been a very exciting day for Kitty - just imagine being a kid and approaching this towering stack of chocolate gloriousness... Only to find chocolates that were "barely the size of her toe." They took a pic to prove it 😶

These comments are so depressing. English cricket really does have a racism problem. It’s appalling.

The day before Gary Ballance was named, Azeem phoned me at 6am asking for help to ensure he - Gary - received the help and support he would need if and when his name came out. He really isn't in the business of revenge. It's about improving things in general.
