Chef and TV personality Monica Galetti is this week's guest. She joins Niva - her real-life cousin - and Beatrice to discuss moving to Wellington from American Samoa as a child, adjusting to her new country, how her love of food started at an early age, her TV and hospitality career in London, why she stepped back from MasterChef, and her experiences with race and gender in her life.
