Chris Locke (Moving Feast Kitchen) - forging community around sustainability goals

We were thirsting for another episode of Dirty Glass, the crossover podcast with Dani Valent from Dirty Linen and Shanteh Wale from Over A Glass. So here it is! We make a splash with wine lists, assessing the drinks offering at Basq, a restaurant in Melbourne. Shanteh helps Dani assess the list as a food (and drink!) critic, and Dani shares some of the criteria she uses when reviewing the wine offering at restaurants.

Robert Jones was born on Stoney Rises, the third generation on his family’s sheep farm in central Victoria. In 1985, he saw the need for diversification in a traditional livestock enterprise so he launched Tuki, a trout fishing venue where visitors could come to catch a fish and - if they wanted - have it cooked for them on the property. Nearly 40 years later, Tuki is a restaurant, farm and accommodation destination, with an exciting new dining chapter underway. https://tuki.com.au/ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR NEWSLETTER FOR EXCLUSIVE ARTICLES, NEWS, GIVEAWAYS AND BEHIND THE SCENES https://deepintheweeds.us6.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=d33e307cf7100cf947e2e6973&id=d17d8213f5 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 FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork The Producers is a food podcast telling the stories of producers, farmers, growers and makers..

Is hospitality broken? Chef and consultant Sam Pinzone works across cafes and restaurants of all types, engineering menus, advising new businesses and trying to inspire staff, some of whom are jaded and despondent.

Friday on my mind! This is an occasional bonus pod and brain dump where I share some of the thoughts flying around my head on a Friday. This time I talk about Sydney fave Fratelli Paradiso, my new Eat Streets series for The Age, and new Melbourne eateries Sebastian Kakigori, Papelon and Charlong. There’s also a special drop-in guest - chef Ronith Arlikatti happened to be dining at his new restaurant Hopper Joint on the same day that I snuck in for a meal.

We go deep with chef Chris Locke, talking about the way toxic kitchen culture has sent him down a new path in which his daily tasks might include dealing with 300 kg of sweet potatoes otherwise destined for the bin. As well as being chef at the no-waste Moving Feast kitchen at Melbourne’s Victoria Market, Chris is working on the first Australian Chefs’ Manifesto action hub event, which is forging community around the UN's sustainability goals.

Last year we did one of our most popular series ever on Dirty Linen, following the planning, building and opening of Martin Boetz's Shortgrain restaurant in Brisbane. It's been seven months and we were wondering...how is Marty going now? We check in to hear about staffing, costs, pricing, customers and vision - is Shortgrain the place its owner hoped it would be, and what advice does this experienced chef and restaurateur have with the wisdom of hindsight? https://www.shortgrain.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 SUBSCRIBE TO OUR NEWSLETTER https://deepintheweeds.us6.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=d33e307cf7100cf947e2e6973&id=d17d8213f5 Dirty Linen is a food podcast hosted by Australian journalist Dani Valent.

Even if hospitality isn't broken, is it breaking the people who work in it? We talk to Paul Pitcher, owner of Woodhouse, a steakhouse in Bendigo. Paul and his wife Danielle run their restaurant with passion and rigour but they're finding it increasingly hard to get the numbers to stack up. What would help their business and the hospitality industry as a whole? And what motivates Paul to keep going, even when there are tough truths every way he turns? https://thewoodhouse.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 SUBSCRIBE TO OUR NEWSLETTER https://deepintheweeds.us6.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=d33e307cf7100cf947e2e6973&id=d17d8213f5 Dirty Linen is a food podcast hosted by Australian journalist Dani Valent.
