Born in England of Irish parents, Anthony grew up in Brixton, South London during the 70s & 80s. He had many stories to share which he does with great flair & humour such as the wonderful friendship he had with Doll his 70yr old neighbour when he was just 5 yrs old and whose influence was to have far reaching affects on his life. What it was like growing up as an immigrant which brought its own challenges in trying to balance between two cultures & finding his identity within that. His love and flair for food & cooking, his early interest in politics and how his Beloved dog helped him make the decision to become vegan and subsequently open his now flourishing delicatessen & bakery. And we did of course cover Anthony's midlife journey too where age he says, has given him a new lens.
