It's like listening to my career!
Having been a chef for 25 years there are so many things and anecdotes that have been told in the 2 series that I can relate to fully!
Easy to listen to for a wind down after work or even just walking the dog, I literally never stop smiling from the first minute to the last... keep it up!

Superb insight into chef life
As a chef it’s been interesting to hear both Paul and his guests opinions on various kitchen matters! Keep up the good work and I look forward to eating at Salt in the near future!

So delighted to have come across this podcast, it is now my go to for a listen and background whilst setting up, The Gary Usher episode I think I’ve listened to about 20 times, so good

A must listen!
If you love food, cooking and related tv programs this is the podcast for you! Interesting chat with valuable and often eye opening insights into the world of top level chefing.
The host asks all the questions you really want to ask and Chef Paul Foster is there to answer honestly, along with the guest. You really feel like the guest chefs are relaxed, open and you’re listening in to a group of mates having a laugh. Thanks guys, keep up the good work! Five Stars!

Great background chef talk
I listen to this podcast whilst in the kitchen doing the mundane tasks every chef hates! Now I look forward to some quiet time in the afternoon whilst we’re closed so I can put the podcast on and nod whilst grinning at the chef’s stories!
Keep up the great work! And thank you

Excellent insight into the experience makers world.
Truly fascinating look at the world of high-performing restaurants and the chefs at their helm. Funny, enlightening, engaging with hilarious regular sections around Tripadvisor. A super way to spend an hour behind the kitchen door of some of the best known restaurants in the county - keep it going chaps!

Great podcast
This is the best chef podcast out there..
great stories of the past in the boiling point section, and the trip advisor listing salt the only 1 star in Stratford upon Avon and it at 19! 😂

Feeling part of the chef family
It’s like being invited to join the best catch up of friends. So relaxed and enjoyable chat and such varied topics covered.
Keep up the good work. Karl

Insightful and funny
Catching up on the old episodes, this has been on constantly for me since I hit play on ep1. Every episode has been a good balance between insightful stories and funny banter. I look forward to more 👍

Brilliant Podcast full of honesty
If podcasts could earn a Michelin star then this would have one. Having eaten at many restaurants with stars over the years, I have always appreciated the effort that goes in to the food and to hear the stories behind it make me want to go to even more. Paul is a great host for this and his acquaintances that join him make the show. Salt is now top of my next places to eat as is listening to the next series. I listened to the first one in four days, couldn’t put it down! Chefs should run the country and Brexit would have been dealt with, all complaints to trip advisor

Entertaining and insightful!
Found myself laughing at every episode!
Great stories!
Worked FOH years ago and miss the camaraderie of working in a Restaurant. Will be listening to all and the next series 😀

Hearing about my own head chef being shut in the walk-in chiller after he had water thrown over him gave a great laugh

The 18th best podcast in Stratford-Upon-Avon
A funny and honest version of how life can be in the kitchen of a professional (and sometimes not so professional) restaurant!.
Really want to know where poor old “Percy” worked (ep.6).
Definitely worth a listen. So far it’s been very entertaining.
