American tourist goes on amusing UK food tour of after falling in love with roast dinners

An American tourist embarked on an amusing UK food tour after falling in love with roast dinners - and says "I could eat fish and chips every day".

Kalani Smith, 25, an avid ghost hunter, had initially been planning a ghost tour of the UK.

But upon his arrival, Kalani filmed himself tucking into a roast for his TikTok followers back in the US - and it went viral.

He was inundated with comments from Brits recommending other foods to try - so he went on a food review tour of the UK.

Kalani has indulged in a Greggs, KFC, Nando's, steak and ale pie, fish and chips, Chinese takeaways, visited the Lidl bakery and had a full English breakfast.

Rating places on taste and texture, Kalani says he could eat 400 Greggs' sausage rolls before getting bored and would "never get sick of fish and chips".

His signature look with his long hair and cowboy hat has even drawn in brands such as Dominos, Wendy's and Tesco - desperate for him to review their grub.

Kalani, a content creator and ghost hunter, from Nashville, Tennessee, US, said: "My initial itinerary was just driving around to different ghost spots but now I'm out here trying 50,000 different types of food.

"Though I'm not complaining

"I'm actually having to extend my trip because of how successful these videos have been - we're going to Scotland and Ireland now.

"In terms of numbers, this has been the most successful stretch in a series of posts that I've ever had - in terms of people investing in the content too.

"The reputation of food over here in the US is it's all bad and quite bland but it's been really fun for me and I'm giving the food a fair chance and telling people what I think about it.

"I posted the first one as more or less just a documentation for my followers in the US but unfortunately I got shredded in the comments as I wore my hat indoors.

"We're not big on etiquette where I'm from and it's more about getting the food down as quickly as possible - so it's been funny getting the feedback on how I eat, and now there's a shot of me taking my hat off each time."

Kalani believes the reason his reviews are drawing in a big crowd is because of how opinionated people are about food.

He said: "Everyone loves food and everyone has an opinion on food, so a lot of people are interested in hearing what an American thinks about their stuff."

After polishing off his Sunday roast, Kalani was advised to try a KFC.

However, he wasn't impressed, branding the chicken "tasteless" and "not crispy enough".

Next up, Kalani visited a Greggs and decided to sample a classic sausage roll, steak bake and a doughnut.

He said: "Greggs was the first thing I didn't have at home and luckily I got it fresh out of the oven.

"It was very good - I could probably eat like 400 of those sausage rolls."

Kalani then took a trip to Nando's in Swindon, Wiltshire, with his review of the South African chain hitting a whopping 1.3m views.

He said: "Nando's was really good.
