- He describes what's happening there when it comes to restaurants & COVID.
- Plus he & his entire family had COVID. Chef Hall lost his sense of taste during his battle & is now a 'long hauler' - still experiencing sporadic COVID symptoms long after the illness has left his body.
- We discuss the journey to recovery post COVID in the Bahamas & what that might look like.
- Chef Hall is hosting an inspirational event to help keep the creative vibes flowing during COVID: https://www.instagram.com/dinnaclubbahamas/?hl=en
- Why do Non-Bahamian restaurants outnumber Bahamian restaurants on the Islands? Chef Hall explains.
- And imagine cooking for Rita Marley while she's telling you fascinating stories from her life? Chef Hall shares some of his favorite moments doing just that with Dr. Marley.
