What does it take to build a restaurant empire that lasts 50 years? And how do you know when it's time to hand over the reins?
Dan Pope sits down with legendary British chef, restaurateur and broadcaster Rick Stein for a candid conversation about food, family, Cornwall and the extraordinary journey behind The Seafood Restaurant in Padstow.
Rick opens up about the challenges of handing control to his sons, the realities of running a hospitality business, and why he's still annoyed that his beloved devilled kidneys disappeared from the menu.
From his difficult relationship with his father and his early adventures in Australia to the influence of Indian cuisine, Charles Dickens and the Roux brothers, Rick reflects on the people, places and experiences that shaped his philosophy of food.
They explore the romance of Cornwall, the importance of making customers feel genuinely welcome, the pressures facing British restaurants, and why cooking is about far more than what's on the plate.
Rick also shares his thoughts on ageing, retirement, culinary traditions, truffle oil and the simple pleasures that make life worth living.
An intimate conversation with one of Britain's most beloved chefs about change, creativity and a lifetime spent around food.
Feed your hunger.

Why does the advertising industry make so much work that people actually pay money to avoid? And what does it take to create something that genuinely matters?
Dan Pope sits down with Nils Leonard, co-founder of Uncommon Creative Studio and one of Britain's most influential creative leaders, for a provocative conversation about originality, ambition, risk and the future of advertising.
From his time at Grey London to building Uncommon, Nils explains why he believes creativity should change the world rather than simply sell products. He shares the thinking behind British Airways' distinctive advertising, the importance of creating cultural reference points, and why brands should aspire to make things people genuinely want to keep.
Along the way, they explore lessons from David Bowie, The Beatles, Virgil Abloh and Nick Cave, the extraordinary power of immersive experiences, and what restaurants can teach the creative industry about making lasting impressions.
Nils also opens up about money, family, failure, the emotional roller coaster of entrepreneurship, and why people need to give themselves permission to dream bigger.
A passionate masterclass in creative thinking, storytelling and building things that matter.
