Nigella Lawson is a lot like roti canai. Now, that might sound like an awfully strange thing to put in a sentence but if you think about it, both are intensely likeable, insanely addictive and possessed of a certain indefinable je ne sais quoi. For example, have you ever met someone who didn’t like roti canai? I didn’t think so.

And have you ever met someone who didn’t like Nigella Lawson? I would hope not. Because if you ever met a real-life, flesh-and-blood human who expressed a distaste for either – you can safely chuck the person out of your life (hello, red flag alert!).
