37 - Omari McQueen
Today we have a very special guest - Omari McQueen.
Omari is a 13 year old vegan chef and founder of dipalicious and mcqueens takeaway. Omari started cooking when his mum was poorly and he wanted to make her nutritious and healthy meals to help her recovery.
You will have seen him on the BBC, YouTube and TikTok - he’s a huge star. The boy is going places and it was a huge pleasure to speak to him. He’s been busy recently sharing his journey with dyslexia and he’ll be off to New York and Jamaica in the coming year to cook. He’s a very intelligent, very articulate young man and this conversation is a lot of fun.
