J something talks cooking on Expresso
We recently caught up with Mi Casa front-man, J’ Something. He spoke about the Mi Casa rumours and what’s new for the band, and also about his new restaurant, Something’s Cooking by J.
Sun International offered J’Something an opportunity to open his first resturant at one of their hotels, he took the opportunity and has hit the ground running. The restaurant opened up in April, in Time Square. From what we have seen on the Instagram page (that’s right, his restaurant has an Instagram account, levels!), all of the food looks unique and delicious, as J’ created all the dishes himself.
J’ has stated though one of his favourite items on the menu is the pork belly ramen because he got the chance to create it with Angelo Scirocco, who is his favourite South African chef. He has however previously stated ‘ the whole menu, it comes from my home, so these are dishes that I make for my friends and family, dishes that I absolutely love! So every single one of them are my favourite!"
The theme of the resturant is Portuguese rooted but with a South African flavour and is meant to be a home away from home, that gets everyone enjoying and tucking in.
