She expressed a love for a real English breakfast and said the best place to have a first date in London is The Curtain hotel, citing its live music, fried chicken and cocktail offerings. However, when she was asked to name a favorite pub, Dunn admitted that, although she would love to say she had a favorite pub spot to have Sunday brunch, “I’m Jamaican and my mother makes me have Sunday lunch at home with my family. It’s a thing! My biggest craving is home-cooked meals.”
