Acclaimed chef Roy Choi recently shared his admiration for Meghan Markle’s cooking abilities, describing her as “great” and “very natural in the kitchen.” He emphasized that her passion for cooking was authentic, stating, “This wasn’t an act, you know? This is something she truly loves to do.” Choi also highlighted her ability to welcome people, which he considers a big part of cooking, reflecting her hospitality.
Bonding Over L.A. Roots
Choi and Meghan connected instantly due to their shared Los Angeles background. He compared their bond to becoming best friends at the mall, saying, “It was like seeing a friend or someone you’ve known for a while.” Despite her royal title, Choi saw her as “Meghan from L.A., from Immaculate Heart High School,” appreciating her genuineness before her life changed. He noted, “We had common memories and there were no formal eggshell-like introductory moments,” underscoring their effortless rapport.
Reports from the set of Meghan’s cooking show, With Love, Meghan, align with Choi’s observations. According to an exclusive article in People magazine (People Magazine Report), the set was described as a “lovefest,” with crew members praising her kindness and hands-on approach. One crew member noted she was “warm,” “approachable,” and “genuine,” serving food between takes and acting as a great hostess, which supports Choi’s comments on her welcoming nature.
