Tiktoker Kalani Ghost Hunter on a mission to defend British food

“A lot of people come to the UK and they visit London, and that’s their extent of visiting the UK,” said Mr Smith, who hails from Mount Juliet in Tennessee.

“Whereas I’ve been to so many cities in the UK that I’ve got a pretty good perception and understanding of the majority of food… I’ve had so many of the regional dishes.”

Mr Smith’s social media career as a ghost hunter took an unexpected turn when, on a trip to the UK earlier this year, he decided to review arguably the most British meal of them all – a roast dinner.

“Things really took a change for me after that point,” said Mr Smith, who has been a food reviewer ever since.

Throughout his travels in the UK, the almost-exclusive setting for his reviews, he found one cuisine particularly stood out.

“The UK’s curry scene is untouchable,” he said.

“You can go to so many different parts of the UK and get a really good curry.”
