What's Cooking?    
The Kitchen Sisters don't work in kitchens, and they're not sisters. But for three decades, Nikki Silva and Davia Nelson have been cooking up compelling documentaries for radio. The Kitchen Sisters now tell their own story, in this sound portrait produced by Alan Hall for the BBC World Service.

Nikki Silva and Davia Nelson have perfected the art of letting ordinary people tell their extraordinary stories. And through their decades-long career producing radio documentaries, they've also fined tuned their ability to collaborate with each other. In this rich sound portrait, The Kitchen Sisters let British radio producer Alan Hall turn the microphone their way.
