Episode Notes

In today’s episode I get to visit one of my favourite places in the world—St. John—a place the late Anthony Bourdain described as “the restaurant of my dreams.” A truer statement has seldom been uttered.

I was invited by Will Bucknall, co-founder of Kicking Horse, a beer distributor with a wine industry background, helping to educate and supply some of London’s best restaurants with great beer. The subject of food and beer is one of my favourites, which is unsurprising considering they’re some of my favourite things. Put them together and you have perfection.

After Will and I chew on this subject for a while we’re joined by St. John’s co-founder Trevor Gulliver—a man with a great many opinions—and whether you agree with him or not, you’ll no doubt find his views to be thought provoking.

This episode was recorded in a working restaurant ahead of a busy service, so please bare with the background noise.

And don’t go anywhere once the interview has finished, as I’ll be reading another piece from our website: a rumination on citrus fruit from chef and founder of Nanban Restaurant, Tim Anderson.

Host: Matthew Curtis
Guests: Will Bucknall — Kicking Horse, Trevor Gulliver — St. John Restaurant
