00:00Hi, this is Love All and I'm Sanjeev Kapoor. Hi Andy. Welcome to this lovely place in Dubai,

00:15Beach Canteen.

00:16Scottish tennis player Andy Murray showcased some of his kitchen skills as a shell and

00:20open runner-up and Wimbledon champion had an unusual culinary experience ahead of the

00:25Dubai GT Free Tennis Championships.

00:27Murray, seated in this Dubai's premier tennis tournament, visited the Dubai Food Festival

00:31to join a celebrity chef in preparing a special curry dish. The festival attracts food lovers

00:37from all over the world and features an array of events and culinary attractions across

00:41the city.

00:42Murray headed to a lively food hotspot set on the golden sands of Kite Beach in Jumeirah

00:47where he met world-renowned Indian celebrity chef Sanjeev Kapoor who was ready to help

00:51him create a very special dish, which they dubbed the Murray Curry.

00:56Murray told Tabloid that travelling around the world in different tournaments has made

01:00more adventurers with his taste buds.

01:02It's one of the nice things about travelling everywhere is that we get to try different

01:07foods and go to a lot of nice restaurants around the world and most of the big cities

01:11they have, you know, good places to eat.

01:13Chef Kapoor says Murray has good potential to be a cook.

01:17Food is something which brings people together. It was fun working with him, teaching him,

01:22teaching him the nuances. And he did very well because he could handle such big pots

01:28and pans. These are not the pans that we use at home. This can be intimidating. But he

01:33did really, really well. I think that's what creates winners when you have people who will

01:40try out anything, which means they are bold, people who can take these kind of decisions

01:46that they would want to give it a go to virtually anything. They may be completely clueless of

01:52this kind of a thing, but yeah, he did very well.

01:55After their fun and exciting cooking session, fans lined up to get a taste of the Murray

02:00curry specially prepared by Murray himself.
