I love my job at Sweet Mandarin. I cook, I teach people how to cook, I make lots of friends along the way. Pictured here with me are my No.1 clients: Bill with his ‘I Love Sweet Mandarin teeshirt’ together with Sue, his wife, and Vicky their daughter. I met them when they came to dine at Sweet Mandarin and we just had a great laugh together during the meal. They came back nearly every single week and it was just a joy to serve them. Its so great to see a friendly face and catch up on the news todate.

Sue has previously joined me on the Intermediate Cookery course at Sweet Mandarin and loved it – she is now a pro at making steamed seabass, sweet and sour, beef and blackbeans (fresh, not from a jar) and spicy Sichuan king prawns.

Today, the family have joined me for the Dim Sum Masterclass at Sweet Mandarin Cookery School – and I had to put this on my Sweet Nothings Blog. Bill made the I Love Sweet Mandarin teeshirt and when I saw it – it brought a huge smile to my face. Wowsers, that is so sweet and I wanted it to share it with you my dear readers. They are so so lovely and really make my job at Sweet Mandarin worth it 110%. I dedicate this blog entry to Bill, Sue and Vicky. Thank you for being a great friend and you are always welcome at Sweet Mandarin.
