Riaz
Phillips
Growing up in London and now living in Berlin, food writer & photographer Riaz Phillips is a powerful voice of representation of diversity in the UK food community. His first book Belly Full aimed to fill the gap on Afro-Caribbean cooking in the UK, documenting Caribbean and African food spots across the country. His second West Winds focuses on exploring the heritage, history and cuisine of his homeland Jamaica.
Over the first lockdown, he also led the Community Comfort e-book project, bringing together heritage recipes to raise funds for the UK’s African and Asian communities hit by the pandemic.
