Scran season 2: Nick Nairn on the crisis facing restaurants - plus how to invest in a whisky cask

The latest episode of our podcast Scran is now live.

On this episode of Scran, I chat to celebrity chef Nick Nairn about the current crisis and its effects on the hospitality industry - and how restaurants are adapting.

Nick also talks about what he's been enjoying cooking at home in lockdown and shares his tips on how to make a whisky sauce.

Continuing the whisky chat is Simon Aron from Cask Trade. Simon gives his tips and advice on investing in whisky casks and why this is a much more interactive and romantic prospect than conventional investments.

Finally I discuss my lockdown food and drink of choice - including a family favourite, delivery options and a newly released gin fizz.
