Join me for My Stonewell Cidery Chat with Daniel Emerson. Founded by Daniel and Geraldine Emerson in 2009, Stonewell is a small family-run cider producer. Their story began with an old French press and apple mill from Geraldine's Loire Valley family before upgrading to a modern press at their Carrigaline Production facility. I joined Daniel in Carrigaline and we walked amongst their fermenters and chatted about how Stonewell have always used apples that are sourced from orchards across Waterford, Kilkenny, Laois, Tipperary, and Cork. They use traditional cider apples like Dabinett and Michelin, blended with eating varieties such as Jonagored, Elstar, and Falstaff Stonewell cider always stood out to me as one of the better cider offerings in bars. This trip down to them confirmed that.

In the first episode of this new series, James is joined by Dean Edwards, Bristol-born chef, MasterChef 2006 finalist, and familiar face as the resident chef on ITV's Lorraine. Known for his approachable “fakeaway” recipes and family-friendly cooking style, Dean reflects on his unconventional journey from digger driver to celebrated food personality. Dean shares how MasterChef kickstarted his culinary journey, leading to his first professional role under chef Daniel Clifford at the two Michelin-starred Midsummer House, a pivotal experience that helped him find his voice in the world of food. He opens about overcoming shyness, imposter syndrome on live TV, and the evolution of his cooking across seven cookbooks. The conversation also touches on his time in Canada as a Maple from Canada UK ambassador, where he and James, along with fellow ambassadors Verna Gao and Alice Fevronia, explored the world of maple syrup production, visited sugar shacks, and immersed themselves in Canadian culture. Dean also discusses the realities of recipe development for social media, why he focuses on simplicity, affordability, and realism in his content, and how he's helping families create delicious meals at home for a fraction of takeaway prices.

I'm Josh Kopel, a Michelin-awarded restaurateur and the creator of the Restaurant Scaling System. I've spent decades in the industry, building, scaling, and coaching restaurants to become more profitable and sustainable. On this show, I cut through the noise to give you real, actionable strategies that help independent restaurant owners run smarter, more successful businesses. In this episode, I tackle a really common frustration: pouring time and money into marketing when the real problem is the product itself. I break down the brutal but freeing truth: Marketing is a megaphone, not a magician. I share my own hard-earned lessons on how to stop masking product issues with ads and instead zero in on product-market fit. I explain how to test it, iterate fast, and double down on what works — so you can stop wasting dollars and start selling out seats and dishes naturally.Takeaways:Many restaurants fail to profit because they haven't built a strong business behind great food and service.If your concept doesn't resonate with your target market, no amount of marketing will fix it.True product-market fit shows up instantly — seats fill, dishes sell out, buzz spreads organically.Marketing only amplifies what's already working; it can't create demand where none exists.To find product-market fit, test small, track data, listen to feedback, and iterate constantly.Stop trying to revive your weakest menu items — double down on your best sellers and build on what already works.Once you nail product-market fit, that's the time to scale your marketing and growth.Chapters: [00:17] Why Restaurants Struggle Financially  [01:35] Cathy's Question — Is Marketing the Problem?  [02:00] Product-Market Fit Explained  [04:00] Marketing is a Megaphone, Not a Magician  [06:30] Double Down on What Works If you've got a marketing or profitability related question for me, email me directly at josh@joshkopel.com and include Office Hours in the subject line.

Our guest is Yoshinori Ishi who is the executive chef and producer of Auberge TOKITO https://www.aubergetokito.com/en/ in Tachikawa, Tokyo.  Chef Ishii's background is unique and spectacular.  He worked at one of the top Kaiseki restaurants in Kyoto called Arashiyama Kiccho as a sous chef and moved abroad to cook at the United Nations Ambassador's Residence in Geneva and New York.  Then he moved to London to open Umu, which earned two Michelin stars—the first two stars by a Japanese restaurant in Europe.  After 10 years of success at Umu, he decided to open Auberge Tokito in the suburb of Tokyo. In this episode, we will discuss how Chef Ishii's philosophy of Japanese cuisine transitioned and expanded over the last 35 years of his career in Japan and abroad, why he decided to go back to Japan to start a new project, the innovative concept of Auberge TOKITO, which focuses on the Japanese cuisine that never existed before and much, much more!!! The documentary film TOKITO:  https://www.tokitofilm.com/en

Podcasting is so last year. These days, anyone who's anyone has their own phone company. Like a restaurant with a fresh Michelin star, Canada is suddenly tough to get into.

Nick and Angela welcome a brilliant broadcaster to our very own happy place.  Fearne Cotton is a TV and radio broadcaster and founder of the hugely successful Happy Place universe. Fearne, who grew up in Hillingdon, West London began her career at the age of 15 presenting kids TV show, The Disney Club. She went on to present shows including Diggit, The Saturday Show and The Xtra Factor, and cohosted Top of the Pops with Reggie Yates from 2004. Fearne is a great friend of Nick's and worked alongside him at BBC Radio 1, where she hosted  Live Lounge in the mid-morning slot.  Fearne currently presents Sounds of the 90s on BBC Radio 2, but is arguably best known for her Happy Place podcast, which has just celebrated its seventh birthday. She joins us to chat about the Happy Place Festival, which takes place in London's Gunnersbury Park on 12 and 13 July, and in Cheshire's Tatton Park on 30 and 31 August. The festival is full of inspiring guest talks, podcast recordings, yoga and workshops.  Angela provides plenty of happy plates in this episode, serving Fearne roast cauliflower with dates, spiced chickpeas, preserved lemons & green tahini with chicory salad, which is paired with a glass of No.1 Beaujolais Villages. Before the arrival of the main course, Fearne is handed a fiery lime margarita, which goes down a treat.  It's no surprise that this week feels like good mates catching up as Fearne and Nick share some of their more random tales of pop star interviews. Fearne talks about her approach to veganism (or ‘veganity'), including the time she broke all her own rules for an interview with Ludovico Einaudi. And is this our most considered Fast Food Quiz yet?

You can tell a lot about a chef by how they talk about repetition. For Aaron, it's not tedious, it's essential. He grew up in Perth, found his culinary footing in a small seafood kitchen, and went on to cook in some of London's most intense and celebrated restaurants. Now heading up the kitchen at O'Connell's Hotel in South Melbourne, Aaron brings with him the calm authority of someone who's done the hard yards. Aaron's career spans Michelin-starred restaurants, big-name mentors like Jason Atherton and Shane Osborn, and some of Melbourne's best-known venues like Cumulous, Scott Pickett's restaurants as well as Oakridge Winery. He still keeps recipe notebooks, mostly lists of ingredients, and draws inspiration from everywhere: books, produce, places, memory. And after all these years, he still genuinely loves being in the kitchen. That short, sharp burst of service? It's where he feels most at home.

Will Guidara, a distinguished figure in the world of hospitality and fine dining, has not only earned numerous accolades but has also revolutionized the way people perceive dining experiences.  His journey teaches us that creating a culture of "unreasonable hospitality" is all about pushing the boundaries, rewriting the script, and delivering extraordinary experiences.

Our next guest traded eleven years at three Michelin-starred Alinea for something money can't buy: balance, agency, and intimacy. Simon Davies discovered this new path immediately after leaving Chicago's temple of molecular gastronomy as Executive Chef in January 2020, when he traveled to Jaipur, India for a project with Champagne house Krug. What started as a consulting venture, Ilixr Creative evolved into an exclusive private dining experience driven by organic demand from clients seeking something beyond the traditional restaurant model.Simon embodies an intriguing duality—calm and measured, with unexpected flashes of playfulness that emerge in his work. I've witnessed this firsthand at his pop-ups at Verve Wine, where he's served elevated burgers alongside fine Burgundy—a delightful contradiction that perfectly captures his approach to hospitality. After more than a decade perfecting his craft in one of the world's most demanding kitchens, Simon has found his own voice in the intimate theater of private dining.Please enjoy my conversation with Simon Davies, a chef who chose connection over convention.https://www.ilixrcreative.comhttps://www.instagram.com/ilixrcreative/https://www.instagram.com/simon.a.davies

El cocinero y copropietario con su hermano Javier del restaurante triestrellado Cocina Hermanos Torres habla sobre los lazos entre gemelos, sobre su evolución personal y profesional, sobre el restaurante como negocio y la importancia de la gestión o sobre las estrellas Michelin. 

Aujourd'hui, on ouvre un débat que vous n'attendiez peut-être pas : celui de la cuisine vegan. Ceci dit, depuis dix jours, les médias multiplient les enquêtes et les alertes sur les dérives de la consommation de viande, et les enjeux environnementaux ou le bien-être animal s'invitent à notre table !Il faut réduire la consommation de daurade, le comté, la viande rouge évidemment, bref, le curseur de la sensibilisation monte progressivement sur le sujet.Sujet clivant pourtant – entre scepticisme, moqueries et idées reçues – il soulève des questions fondamentales...Je ne suis pas vegan, je ne compte pas forcément le devenir, mais je suis curieux. Curieux de comprendre ce qui anime celles et ceux qui choisissent cette alimentation, et ceux qui entreprennent dans cette voie pas forcément très populaire !Pour cet épisode, j'ai voulu donc proposer une rencontre entre deux voix qui avancent, chacune dans sa ligne, sur le terrain de l'alimentation vegan :Mélanie Sancery-Gay, alias Mélanie en Veganie sur Instagram, qui partage des recettes végétales simples et créatives, malgré les critiques parfois virulentes qu'elle reçoit ;Renaud Saisset, ingénieur agro et directeur de la marque Accro, qui développe des alternatives végétales à la viande, en s'appuyant sur les protéines de pois et de blé français.On a parlé goût, cohérence, marketing, militantisme, mais aussi plaisir – parce que oui, l'enjeu maintenant c'est encore de démontrer qu'on peut se régaler sans protéines animales. Ce talk, c'est une invitation à réfléchir, sans dogme, à la manière dont on va devoir ou vouloir se nourrir à l'avenir. Le végétal, ce n'est pas juste une tendance : c'est un terrain de jeu culinaire immense que de plus en plus de chefs investissent avec passion. Alors… le véganisme a-t-il un avenir dans nos assiettes ? Est-ce qu'on peut en parler sans s'énerver ? Et surtout, est-ce que ça peut avoir du goût ? Spoiler : oui.

Direction Blois, en bord du fleuve, où se dresse Fleur de Loire, le sublime restaurant de Christophe Hay. Ici le temps se suspend et ce n'est pas une formule, car à peine la porte franchi les lieux et l'équipe qui lui donne vie nous invite à laisser derrière nous l'agitation qui nous a animé jusqu'ici.Cette sérénité qui règne ici elle trouve sûrement ces racines dans le tempérament du chef. Une personnalité à part, qui a tracé son profil dans l'ombre d'un monument de l'histoire de la gastronomie française: Paul Bocuse.C'est lui qui a donné à Christophe Hay ses premières responsabilités, et pas des moindres... Alors nous allons voyager de la vallée de la Loire aux États-Unis, où l'empreinte d'un Paul Bocuse intime va marquer Christophe Hay pour toujours.La suite de l'histoire il l'écrira sur ses terres, au retour de cet exode hors du commun et n'aura de cesse de faire parler sa terre et bâtir une cuisine nourrie de ses propres racines. Elever un troupeau de wagyu, cultiver son jardin pour faire de l'assiette le reflet de sa région, ce n'est que la partie émergée de l'iceberg.Plongez dans l'univers d'un "terroiriste" engagé, au regard aussi radical qu'il est empreint d'humanité.Distribué par Audiomeans.

Hear about travel to the French Riviera as the Amateur Traveler talks to travel writer and children's book author Kimberley Lovato about this region where she has had a pied-à-terre for years. Why should you go to the French Riviera? Kimberley says, "Certainly for people who love great hotels and Michelin star food and gorgeous scenery, you know what's not to love? We have the Cannes Film Festival. But, if you love beaches, hiking, and museums, I hate the cliche 'there's something for everyone', but in this case, it is true. Beaches, food, hotels, small, quaint, charming, and picture-perfect villages. It's all really here, easy to get around." Arrival & Base Fly into Nice, the region's main airport. Base yourself in Nice, Cannes, or Sainte-Maxime, depending on your interests—city, beach, or quieter village.

I've spent decades in the industry, building, scaling, and coaching restaurants to become more profitable and sustainable. On this show, I cut through the noise to give you real, actionable strategies that help independent restaurant owners run smarter, more successful businesses.In this episode, I make the case for connection over content. Because here's the truth: most restaurant owners are focused on chasing new customers when the gold is sitting right in front of them — the people who already love what you do. I dig into how to build deeper relationships with your existing guests by creating personalized experiences and engaging directly. When we stop broadcasting and start actually connecting, that's when the magic happens. I walk through the exact steps to create marketing that feels personal, meaningful, and intentional — the kind of stuff that makes your best customers feel seen, valued, and eager to come back. If you're ready to stop shouting into the void and start turning loyal guests into your biggest advocates, this episode's for you.Takeaways:You can run a successful restaurant without running a successful restaurant business.Marketing isn't about content. It's about connection.Focus on frequency rather than new customer acquisition.Mass content doesn't create loyalty. Connection does.Your guests aren't looking for noise. They're just looking for a reason to come back.Connection comes from direct engagement, not volume.Create personal one-to-one moments with your customers.Your best customers just need a reason to come back.Make a list of your top guests, create that personalized offer.The math on this is compelling.Chapters:00:00 Introduction to Restaurant Profitability01:06 The Importance of Connection in Marketing03:02 Personalized Marketing Strategies for Customer Retention05:55 Actionable Steps for Engaging Your Best CustomersIf you've got a marketing or profitability related question for me, email me directly at josh@joshkopel.com and include Office Hours in the subject line.

We have the wonderful Michelin star chef, and owner of La Gavroche, Michel Roux Jr joining us for lunch this week. Mum was surprisingly calm considering she was cooking for a double Michelin star chef, but Michel even got involved and guided her through the fish cooking! We heard all about Michel's military training in his teens, his dad cooking for the Queen Mother, his love of vintage champagne, leaving Masterchef The Professionals due to potatoes and he tells us how his mother's waters broke right in the middle of their dinner service! Michel was a true gentleman and joins our list of fabulous chef guests across the series. You can catch La Gavroche at Wimbledon this summer and on board selected Cunard cruise ships. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Angela and Nick welcome an actor who definitely knows his way around a kitchen. Nick Frost is an actor, comedian and screenwriter and the first (and possibly only) participant in a Dish chop-off! Frost joins us after the release of his new film, How To Train Your Dragon, a live action remake of the hugely popular animated film series, based on Cressida Cowell's books. The movie sees him star as the popular blacksmith Gobber alongside Gerard Butler, Mason Thames and Nico Parker.  You will know Nick Frost from a range of TV and film roles, including the Three Flavours Cornetto Trilogy (Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz and The World's End) alongside his good pal and long-time collaborator Simon Pegg. Frost also appeared with Pegg in the cult TV comedy Spaced. Other TV and film credits include Attack the Block, Paul, Truth Seekers, Green Wing, The Adventures of Tintin and Fighting With My Family, alongside costar Florence Pugh.  Nick loves life in a kitchen, having worked as a chef before getting into acting. His passion for food is beautifully detailed in his memoir/recipe book, A Slice Of Fried Gold, which is now available in paperback. Having met Angela once before, Frost finally gets to have a full conversation with her (and Nick) over a delicious meal of spicy barbecued lamb with minty tomato & watermelon relish, with Angela marinating the meat overnight for extra flavour. Nick opts for a Fanta, but for wine-lovers our Waitrose experts recommend a glass of PepperBox Shiraz.  At our request, Nick brought his favourite kitchen knife to the record for a demonstration of his chopping skills alongside Angela. Our hosts dig into Nick's passion for great tasting food (and clean surfaces), and get  the lowdown on the world's best pizza, discovered by Nick in Belfast.  You can watch full episodes of Dish on YouTube  All recipes from this podcast can be found at waitrose.com/dishrecipes A transcript for this episode can be found at waitrose.com/dish We can't all have a Michelin star chef in the kitchen, but you can ask Angela for help.  Send your dilemmas to dish@waitrose.co.uk and she'll try to answer them in a future episode.Dish from Waitrose is made by Cold Glass Productions.

Et si le pouvoir de transformer notre système alimentaire se trouvait… dans notre caddie ? Dans cet épisode du Positive Leadership Podcast, je reçois Nicolas Chabanne, fondateur de C'est qui le Patron ?!, la "marque du consommateur" qui a redonné du pouvoir à des millions de citoyens pour mieux rémunérer les producteurs. Avec honnêteté et conviction, Nicolas revient sur son parcours atypique, son engagement en faveur d'une consommation solidaire, et sa volonté de faire de l'agriculture une grande cause nationale. Ensemble, nous abordons : Comment les consommateurs peuvent soutenir les agriculteurs en orientant leurs choix d'achat, Pourquoi il a cédé toutes ses actions à une fondation pour préserver l'indépendance du projet, Le sens du leadership collectif et les défis d'une économie plus juste. Une conversation qui réconcilie valeurs, action concrète et espoir.

Alors nous allons voyager de la vallée de la Loire aux États-Unis, où l'empreinte d'un Paul Bocuse intime va marquer Christophe Hay pour toujours.La suite de l'histoire il l'écrira sur ses terres, au retour de cet exode hors du commun et n'aura de cesse de faire parler sa terre et bâtir une cuisine nourrie de ses propres racines. Elever un troupeau de wagyu, cultiver son jardin pour faire de l'assiette le reflet de sa région, ce n'est que la partie émergée de l'iceberg.Plongez dans l'univers d'un "terroiriste" engagé, au regard aussi radical qu'il est empreint d'humanité.Distribué par Audiomeans.

Garima Arora is the India born chef of the two Michelin star restaurant Gaa in Bangkok, Thailand. She is the only female Indian chef with two Michelin stars. Garima has been working tirelessly to awaken the transformative potential of Indian cuisine both in India and abroad for many years. She developed a non-profit called Food Forward India, that documents, discover and catalogue the diversity and complexity of Indian food and the culture surrounding it, and is also a judge on MasterChef India, one of the most wide-reaching culinary television shows on earth.In our conversation, we speak of how the perception of Indian food has changed since she opened the restaurant. I spent two months in the country when I was 25, traveling on 3rd class trains everywhere, going from the Himalayas in the north to Goa in the south, and the border with Pakistan in the west to Varanasi in the east. Aside of being one of the most impactful periods of my life, I tasted so many things that were new to me and I haven't seen since. Indian food, the cuisine of a massive landscape with hundreds of ecosystems and more people than any other country on the planet, was, for many years, reduced to a handful of curries and breads outside of the country. It's so vast and rich and has been bottled up within India for so long, but suddenly it's starting to spread. This is very much a big moment for Indian food outside of India. Tresind Studio in Dubai was just awarded 3 Michelin stars. Semma in New York was named the best restaurant in the city by The New York Times. And within India there is a lot going on too, not just with fine dining restaurants, but at the street level there is an energy there that is growing by the day. This is a cuisine, sorry not a cuisine, but thousands of them, that have been overlooked for far too long.Aside of trying to juggle parenting with chef life and her early career as a journalist, Garima talks about her work at Gaa. She tells us about the historic Thai house that was moved in pieces to Bangkok and reassembled with the help of a modern architecture firm to create the setting of the restaurant. She tells us how she cooks the Thai fruit durian on a tandoor oven as her main course, which sounds like one of the most delicious things ever.READ MORE at NEW WORLDER.

I'm Josh Kopel, a Michelin-awarded restaurateur and the creator of the Restaurant Scaling System. I've spent decades in the industry, building, scaling, and coaching restaurants to become more profitable and sustainable. On this show, I cut through the noise to give you real, actionable strategies that help independent restaurant owners run smarter, more successful businesses.In this episode, I talk about something I think we've gotten backwards in the restaurant industry — loyalty. Too many of us are trying to buy it with discounts and deals. But real loyalty? That comes from connection. I dig into how to move beyond the transactional and start creating experiences that actually mean something to your guests. It's about storytelling. It's about generosity. It's about making people feel like they matter. When you build that kind of emotional connection, you don't need to bribe people to come back — they come back because they want to. And better yet, they tell their friends. If you're looking to turn one-time visitors into lifelong fans, this episode is for you.Takeaways:You can run a successful restaurant without running a successful restaurant business.Most restaurant owners have great food but lack business acumen.Discounts do not drive loyalty; they create transactional relationships.Guests return for the experience, not for discounts.Creating a sense of belonging is key to guest loyalty.Generosity should be intentional and targeted, not random.Memorable experiences lead to word-of-mouth marketing.Identify high-value guest moments for targeted gestures of generosity.Document and share guest stories to enhance marketing efforts.True loyalty is built on experiences, not freebies.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Restaurant Profitability02:03 The Power of Genuine Connection Over Discounts05:51 Creating Memorable Guest ExperiencesIf you've got a marketing or profitability related question for me, email me directly at josh@joshkopel.com and include Office Hours in the subject line.

Harland kicks things off by reminiscing about fingering calamari and the first time someone touched his arse—with a thermometer. Tom shares the traumatic moment he had to show a friend his infamously hairy sphincter... and yes, he ends up showing Harland too. Surprisingly, the conversation spirals into absurd territory with erotic drawings, smut searches, fart-catching attempts, a Dominican dick flash, and a deep dive into Enny's alleged fondness for buttholes. Harland doesn't disappoint either—he reacts to fart videos, tells a story about dating Madonna, and looks forward to tanning with Tom. The two also talk about creativity, recreational drugs, Harland's distrust of nicotine pouches, the anthems of both Canada and Texas, plus playing doctor, and horseshoes with neck pillows. Oh, and Harland names his favorite dictator.
