Description

Wahaca creator and award-winning chef Thomasina Miers joins Gaby for a tummy rumbling chat about food and joy.


She and Gaby share in their love of Mexican food, and talk about how easy it is to cook at home - if you have the right recipes.


Thomasina opened Wahaca just two years after winning Master Chef and now has 14 restaurants. She talks about the journey to getting here, how she's only recently felt like she's good enough, and is very honest about her ADHD diagnosis, which has answered a lot of questions.


Her new cook book - Mexican Table - is 100 recipes using 12 staple ingredients of Mexico. It's coming out end of August - and available to pre-order now


We hope you enjoy this joyful chat - and remember - you can watch all of our conversations on the Reasons To Be Joyful youtube page! (where you'll also find our bonus extra nuggets of joy - our Show & Tell episodes - every Friday)
