Scran season 8: Michelin Stars with chefs Rodney Wages and Stuart Ralston

The latest episode of our podcast, Scran, is now live.

On this episode of Scran, I am riding the wave of Michelin star celebrations when I speak to two new recipients. 

Stuart Ralston of Layla and Rodney Wages of Avery, both very new restaurants, join me to talk all about the process of gaining the star, how they have achieved it, what it means for their teams and what happens once they win.

This episode gives a great insight into the world of fine dining and just what it takes to reach the pinnacle of the industry.
