Is hospitality broken? Absolutely not, says Jo Barrett. The Age Good Food Guide's Chef of the Year has just announced she's closing her one-hat restaurant Little Picket, but it's on her terms. The restaurant is profitable and she's moving on to two projects she thinks need to be tackled now: wild game and bread waste. Jo is a return guest on Dirty Linen. Listen to her illuminating takeover series here. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1TYMr5ffQFtiXr8N7r6vYJ?si=6893080a3f68492b https://www.instagram.com/jobarrett/?hl=en Follow Dirty Linen on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/dirtylinenpodcast Follow Dani Valent https://www.instagram.com/danivalent Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow Huck (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork Dirty Linen is a food podcast hosted by Australian journalist Dani Valent.

When Lachlan Dougherty was an apprentice chef, it wasn't unusual for his head chef to call him into a lift to scream at him. Two decades later, the owner of Black Vice cafe in Hurstbridge still feels like he's unpicking the impacts of abuse. We talk about hospitality culture and the perpetuation of bad behaviour and - crucially - how courageous questioning and practical steps can lead to positive change. This is a brave chat - there's never a bad time to talk about mental health, but with so many people in the industry feeling extraordinary pressures, it feels like an especially good moment to throw the focus on business culture. https://www.blackvice.com.au/ Follow Dirty Linen on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/dirtylinenpodcast Follow Dani Valent https://www.instagram.com/danivalent Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow Huck (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork Dirty Linen is a food podcast hosted by Australian journalist Dani Valent.

As we've been asking if hospitality is broken, there's been a common refrain that restaurant groups have it easy, or at least easier. Today's guest is Ash Hicks, executive chef of Darling Group, which has a dozen or so venues in Victoria. What are the upsides and snags of being part of a group? Does money wash through the hallways? How do you build positive culture when each business is part of a larger whole? https://darlinggroup.com.au/ Follow Dirty Linen on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/dirtylinenpodcast Follow Dani Valent https://www.instagram.com/danivalent Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow Huck (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork Dirty Linen is a food podcast hosted by Australian journalist Dani Valent.

I remember when Josh’s Rainbow Eggs first arrived at my local supermarket 14 or 15 years ago. The brightly coloured box promised free range eggs and the packaging had a photo of a young boy’s face on it - how great to be able to support a kid in his ethical business, I thought. Josh Murray was nine then and he’s 23 now.

We continue to wrangle over this big question: is hospitality broken? Ben Liebmann was COO of Noma in Copenhagen for seven years but he's also worked across music and television. He brings his broad perspective to position hospitality alongside other creative industries. If restaurants and the people who work in them are so critical to our identity and economy, why isn't there a truly representative body that gets hospitality to the table with government? And what lessons can we learn from Noma's diversification from a fine dining restaurant into a business with products for sale and burgers for flipping? https://www.instagram.com/benliebmann/ Follow Dirty Linen on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/dirtylinenpodcast Follow Dani Valent https://www.instagram.com/danivalent Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow Huck (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork Dirty Linen is a food podcast hosted by Australian journalist Dani Valent.

We’re kicking off a new series on Dirty Linen today and we’re asking a big question. Is hospitality broken? We hope the answer is no. But there’s no doubt that it’s hard. Harder than ever, and as it happens for today’s guest, too hard to keep going. Alex Elliot-Howery and her husband James Grant opened Cornersmith in 2011. It’s been through various iterations over a dozen or so years and in many ways has been a touchstone in the way it’s put ethics and sustainability at the centre of the business.

The Producers Podcast visited Holy Goat's Ann-Marie Monda and Carla Meurs in 2021. We sat on the deck at Sutton Grange Farm with their kelpie and a pot of tea, talking about ethics, pathways and - of course - cheese. Like every meeting with these two, it was a conversation with impact, provoking consideration of life choices, connection and commitment. To commemorate, the announcement of Holy Goat's cessation, we re-share this episode. Since 1999, Ann-Marie Monda and Carla Meurs have been nurturing, creating and crafting at Sutton Grange Farm on Dja Dja Wurrung Country near Castlemaine in Victoria. The goats they milk to make their revered farmhouse cheese are central to the rhythm of their days. https://www.holygoatcheese.com.au Follow The Producers on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/producerspodcast/ Host Dani Valent https://www.instagram.com/danivalent Host Anthony Huckstep https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ Executive Producer Rob Locke https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ LISTEN TO OUR OTHER PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork

If farmers don't grow food, we don't get to eat, but what happens if climate change makes farming too hard? Chloe Fox's Somerset Heritage Farm has just been flooded for the second time in 15 months and she's lost more than $200,000 worth of peak summer produce. We talk about the impacts on her farm and others in her part of Victoria and beyond, and the attitude that's pushing her to once again rebuild and replant. https://www.instagram.com/somerset.heritage.produce/ Follow Dirty Linen on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/dirtylinenpodcast Follow Dani Valent https://www.instagram.com/danivalent Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow Huck (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork Dirty Linen is a food podcast hosted by Australian journalist Dani Valent.

New year, new chats! We kick off 2024 with publican Sally Wright, the creative and dynamic force behind the Stanley Pub in Victoria's High Country. How did Sally get into food in the first place - kind of by accident - and how does she create a space of welcome and sustenance for locals and tourists in a pretty farming town? Also, why does she write 'ed-a-mam-ay' on her menu? https://www.stanleypub.com.au/ Follow Dirty Linen on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/dirtylinenpodcast Follow Dani Valent https://www.instagram.com/danivalent Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow Huck (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork Dirty Linen is a food podcast hosted by Australian journalist Dani Valent.
