Babalola Olawale George

He goes by the name Babalola Olawale George , some call him Fabs, others call him Fabspoons, but i call him Bros Walenut.  He is one versatile gentle looking young man, whose face might not been known but, his works are exquisite and, the talk of the town. He is a man of little word, but effective actions. He is the brain behind most made names we hear of today, so i think it is high time his face gets know. Micheal Irabor , of KINGGS BLOG  after a long time of sweet talking him to grant us an interview, finally got the chance to have a brief chat with the gentleman, He shared with us his love for cooking, and how he intends taking it professionally. Enjoy!

 When did you decide to take your cooking skills to the next level,  and what promoted that idea?

 For me,   taking my cooking skills to the  next level was a long time dream,  and a strong desire to  cook for selected people who are ready to enjoy what  cooking good  food really is.  This days you get to eat a lot of low standard food for high prices,  and that is really unfair, and shouldn't be.  So I decided to come out and make people know,  and understand what a good meal is.  And also ensure people get properly prepared meal for any amount. This is why I now do what I do,  and it is also what keeps me pushing.
