| 02 Mar 2018 | S03E01 Rosie Sykes | 00:39:12 | |
Most of us want to forget that back-to-school feeling by kicking off our shoes and hunkering down with a soul-soaring supper – one that can be eaten with friends at the table, with book in hand by the fire, or in front of the TV. In The Sunday Night Book Rosie shares how to make Sunday night the best evening of the week, by perfecting the last, lazy meal of the weekend. All the recipes in the book are simple and make clever use of store cupboard staples and leftovers. Rosie came to talk to us about cooking in small, high-stakes, destination restaurants in the British countryside with the likes of Joyce Molyneux, how she ended up recipe testing for Delia Smith and why it’s ok to drink cocktails on a Sunday night.

We talked about her experiences starting out in the hey day of journalism, the reality of eating out four times a week, when not to write a bad review, and how to deal with death threats when you do! It was such an honour to have Fay with us for this conversation. It was fascinating to hear about the changes she has seen over the years on the London restaurant scene, how the rise of social media has changed things, the food writers she admires the most, and what we all really, really want to know... where we should be eating right now in London.

We talked all about creating a Thai grill menu at Kiln using a range of simple tao barbecues; his story of becoming a chef; the travels, cooking and learning that led to combining British grown ingredients with Thai recipes. Such a fascinating conversation! We sat down for a sensational menu including delicious liver grilled in sage, raw Jersey beef laap, jungle curry of kippers, mackerel mashwi and Tamwoth belly kapi curry. It was sensational - so vibrant, spicy and smoky. Each chef brought a completely different perspective to cooking over the coals and it was so much fun to cook with them.

| 08 Mar 2020 | S07E08 Who Run The World? The Women of Honey & Co | 00:24:31 | |
It’s International Women’s Day! To celebrate this glorious day we have one very special episode of our Who Run The World? season celebrating inspiring Women In Food. Today’s episode features the most important and inspirational women in our lives, the women running Honey & Co! We like to say that every day is women’s day at Honey & Co and in this episode we chat to some of the women working in the kitchens, on front of house and behind the scenes to make it that way. For one week only, our roving reporter and fearless leader Sarit Packer had a walk around Fitzrovia to chat to the team about why they love their lives in food: from the joy of leaving behind 9-5 clock watching, to the buzz of running a busy service; from the satisfaction of knowing everything about your regulars to the happiness of waking up every morning go to a job that you love... and of course the absolutely delicious food! We also talked candidly about past experiences juggling childcare and the perception that as a woman you must choose family or career, we shared experiences working in macho establishments in the past and talked about how this is changing in the industry. We are so, so proud of the strong and happy female-led company we have created and the nurturing and progressive atmosphere that comes with this. We hope this episode will give a special insight into the world of hospitality and Honey & Co and inspire lots more women to come join us. Hope you enjoy! This is the last episode in our Who Run The World? Women in Food Season. Be sure to catch up on previous episodes with: Fay Maschler Darina Allen Romy Gill Lisa Markwell Sheila Dillon Claudia Roden Andi Oliver

| 25 Oct 2021 | S09E04 Sami Tamimi & Tara Wigley | 00:38:46 | |
Today on Honey & Co: The Food Sessions we have the most exciting guests, Sami Tamimi and Tara Wigley, co-authors of Falastin, a celebration of Palestinian food. They’re both from the powerhouse of Ottolenghi, Sami was a partner from the outset, and Tara joined the Ottolenghi Test Kitchen 10 years ago, where she has been developing and testing recipes ever since. We talked about their very different routes into the food world, our memories of working together at Ottolenghi, and how they came to write Falastin. We were fascinated to hear their experiences visiting Palestine together – we compared Tara’s spreadsheet to Sami’s relaxed approach to travel, heard how they spent days tracking down a group of yogurt makers, and they told us about the generosity of all the people whose kitchens they visited. And of course we discussed at length the recipes that have gone wild since the book came out – Sami’s dad's famous eggs, tahini swirls, and the shawarma filo pie.

We also talked about the women who have inspired her and helped her along the way, from her mother to Sheila Dillon, Claudia Roden, Delia Smith and Nigella Lawson. Romy is such an inspiration to women in the food industry and such a pleasure to chat to.

| 15 Aug 2019 | V&A Special - Ep 3 - David Burns & Austin Young of Fallen Fruit | 00:20:52 | |
Ep3 of our mini-series in partnership with the V&A to celebrate their fantastic exhibition FOOD: Bigger than the Plate. Recorded live at the V&A museum, in this episode we chatted to California-based artists Fallen Fruit - David Burns and Austin Young - about their part in the farming section of the exhibition. David and Austin make public art which explores the role of fruit in creating shared culture. By foraging depictions of fruit from the V&A's collection, they have created two unique installations for the exhibition - beautiful wallpaper which draws on the horticultural history of the site and a series of fruit maps which plot the locations of fruit trees growing in public space in London.

In a small converted greengrocers in South London (her ice cream shed), Kitty Travers patiently creates an array of iced delights – fresh ice creams that taste of the real, whole fruits; and eye-popping, palate-tickling sorbets that will enliven the taste buds of all those lucky enough to sample them.

| 13 May 2021 | S08E01 CHASING SMOKE: Egypt | 00:31:06 | |
We're back with a new series of Honey & Co: The Food Sessions all about our new cookbook CHASING SMOKE. Where there's smoke, there's fire. Where there's fire there's delicious food to share, and friendships and memories to make. CHASING SMOKE is a record of our travels around the Levant, chasing and cooking over fire on grills, beaches and bonfires. For the next five weeks we'll be sharing travel stories with you, cooking recipes from our trip and catching up with some of the friends we made in each of the five countries that we visited: Egypt, Greece, Turkey, Israel and Jordan. First up is Egypt where we travelled to Cairo and Alexandria. In this episode we make sweet potatoes baked in embers, a dish we tried for the first time on the Corniche waterside in Alexandria, which we add our own almond tahini twist to; we talk to our friend and photographer Patricia Niven who accompanied us on all our trips to take beautiful photos; and we catch up with Laila Hassaballa of Bellies En Route who took us on the most incredible food tour in Cairo. There's charcoal in buckets, cars in carpets and... the dynamite falafel sandwich.

| 24 Jan 2020 | S07E02 Who Run The World? Claudia Roden | 00:25:03 | |
This is the second episode of our Who Run The World? season celebrating women in food. Today’s guest is Claudia Roden, the goddess of Middle Eastern food writing. Claudia is a cookbook writer and anthropologist, her career spans over 50 years. Originally from Egypt, Claudia grew up in Cairo and studied in Paris and London. In 1956 when her parents fled Egypt to London, Claudia began collecting recipes from the Jewish diaspora arriving from all over the Middle East as a way to make a connection between refugees and their homelands. This led to multiple bestselling cookbooks including the international award-winning The Book of Jewish Food, and she revolutionised western attitudes to Middle Eastern cuisines in 1968 with her bestselling cookbook, A Book of Middle Eastern Food. We talked to Claudia about her unusual route to a career in food writing, how attitudes to women working have changed over the last 50 years, the women who inspired her, and how travelling alone as a woman was treated with suspicion yet opened many kitchen doors for her research. Claudia is a true inspiration, our hero, and we owe so much to her in paving the way for us. This interview is part of our series Who Run The World? Women in Food in which we will be chatting to leading women across the food industry, writers, broadcasters, critics, chefs and restaurateurs. Our final episode will air on 8th March International Women’s Day. Got something to say? Share your thoughts, feelings and questions with us!

Self-taught chef Stephen Harris transformed what was once called a “grotty rundown pub by the sea” on the coast in Kent into a Michelin-starred restaurant that has been named Britain’s number one. At The Sportsman, Stephen uses the best ingredients available in the immediate land surrounding the pub – the pork is sourced from the farm next door; they make their own butter and the salt is sourced from the sea. We chatted about the transformation of the pub and of Stephen himself as well as his new book. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. | |||

The new cookbook River Cafe 30 marks three decades of memories and good food at the restaurant. The team revisited and updated the best dishes from the first blue cookbook and introduce 30 new favourites from the menus today – panzanella, ravioli with ricotta, raw tomato and basil, risotto with porcini and girolles and the outstanding chocolate nemesis.

| 05 Nov 2019 | Honey & Smoke Birthday Special with Olia Hercules | 00:32:20 | |
It's Bonfire Night and our grill house Honey & Smoke is three! To celebrate the third birthday we had not one, not two, but three parties. We invited three fire-loving chefs, Olia Hercules, Ben Chapman and Gill Meller to cook over fire with us and to talk about their life in food and flames. In this series we are doing things a bit differently, so first we head into the kitchens of Honey & Smoke to cook up one of our most popular dishes for you: a recipe for grilled pears with almond tahini, coriander and smoked almonds. Then we chat to our first guest Olia Hercules who brought us beautiful smoke dried pears from Ukraine. We talk about Eastern European stereotypes of beetroot and cabbage, memories of cooking fish broth over fire for summer picnics, traditions of smoking fruit in wood fired ovens, and her dad's incredible keffir recipe which makes the most tender grilled chicken. After a wonderful conversation we sat down together with the crowd to enjoy Olia's gorgeous Eastern European grill inspired menu. What a treat! Each chef brought a completely different perspective to cooking over the coals and it was so much fun to cook with them. Stay tuned for the next episode with Ben Chapman.

The first episode of our Who Run The World? season celebrating women in food. Since the start of Honey & Co women have reigned supreme; they run our kitchens, our front of house and our offices, and we finally feel that the industry is starting to catch up with us. Women are now leading the way across the industry, not just as chefs but as food critics, as writers, as culinary teachers, tv and radio presenters and so much more. So, with International Women’s Day on the horizon we wanted to dedicate a whole season to some of the women who inspire us every single day! Today’s guest is Andi Oliver, she’s the most vivacious and beautiful person we’ve had the chance to meet this year. The interview with her is absolutely hilarious. We talked about her career in a punk band, and how she made the transition to chef and then to food broadcaster. Her show The Great British Menu is one of our absolute favourite shows, you should watch it - we spend hours arguing over what we would make! Listen to find out more about how she managed to get where she is and how she broke the glass ceiling. We are also so excited to hear about her current project collecting recipes from all around the Caribbean, Wadadli Kitchen. This interview is part of our series Who Run The World? Women in Food.
