I am Chef' DPK. My love for cooking has been since I was young. I love to help people satisfy their hunger by preparing different delicacies for them.The way I took care of my family by making delicious delicacies for them daily has really brought lots of love between us and other family members. They never cease to talk about my cooking skills all the time. This was what actually inspired me to learn about different techniques in cooking and futher my education in the culinary career. I am now a certified chef and I have trained a lots of students on this aspect too.I have a school called DA PRINCESS KITCHEN AND CULINARY CONCEPT in Ibadan Oyo State, Nigeria.
