On episode four of the second series of Humans of Chelmsford we meet Mark Strutton, the owner of restaurant Shwings and a former DJ.
Mark’s life is very much focused on his chicken restaurant Shwings, which opened back in November 2018.
But life before Chelmsford was very different for Mark, as he was a highly successful DJ in Marbella regularly mixing with the cast from The Only Way is Essex.
As he says in this podcast your brain is either wired to do maths and numbers, or it’s wired up to be creative.
Mark definitely falls under the second category.
On this episode of the podcast Mark tells us all about his time in Spain mingling with the cast people have come to know and love.
He also explains the changes the TV show had on the area and the Marbs scene in general.
But eventually there came a point where everything had to stop and his focus became about his new restaurant, a place that is continuing to be a success in Chelmsford City Centre.
Brought to you by Essex Live, Humans of Chelmsford is a podcast about inspiring people with incredible tales from across the city.
