    Sat Bains - Surviving a Deadly Heart Attack, Banning Caviar & Truffle, Winning 2 Michelin Stars, The Behavioural Science Wine List that Makes £1000's

    A masterclass in the nuts and bolts of running a world-class restaurant. In this episode, Dan sits down with one of Britain’s most uncompromising chefs to talk about building a two-Michelin-star restaurant in the least glamorous location imaginable — a strange little oasis tucked under a Nottingham flyover, surrounded by graffiti, traffic, and the occasional burning car. But that’s exactly the point. Sat explains why great restaurants aren’t just about food — they’re about theatre, emotion, risk, and creating something so memorable that people will travel across the world to experience it. From the philosophy behind Restaurant Sat Bains to the psychology of hospitality, the conversation dives into why authenticity beats polish, why imperfection can be powerful, and why chasing Michelin stars is often the least interesting part of running a restaurant. Along the way they explore Sat’s unconventional ideas — like the now-famous “Sat’s Gamble” wine lottery — the realities of attracting true traveling food lovers, and what it actually takes to build a restaurant that people obsess over. This is a conversation about vision, stubbornness, and why sometimes the best restaurants in the world are built in the most unlikely places. *If you noticed any issues with ads playing under the audio of this episode, please refresh the feed and re-download the episode to fix.  Thank you for listening! 00:00 Gastronomic Narnia00:03:30 Your Restaurant is a Breathing Organism00:05:50 The Secret Behind the Perfect Dish00:9:26 Secret Scallop Techniques and What 30yrs in Kitchens Teaches You00:14:30 The REAL difference w/ Sat Bains and Other Michelin Restaurants00:17:45 How to Mix Complacency, Naivety, and Relentless Drive00:19:35 More on Sat Bains' Scallop Technique 00:21:30 How Sat Bains Treats His Staff00:22:42 Acidity Explored00:24:45 Why Makes Sat Different?

    How I Built the UK's First Indian Street Food Chain (it was easier than you think) - Nisha Katona, Mowgli

    From bricks through the window in 1960s Skelmersdale to queues around the block in Liverpool, this is a story of immigrant hunger, insecurity, obsession with standards — and building something that blesses a city. Dan sits down with Nisha Katona — founder of Mowgli Street Food — the woman who turned authentic Indian home cooking into the first national Indian street food chain in Britain.  Nisha breaks down why Mowgli was never meant to be a “curry house,” why Hindu home cooking avoids garlic and onion at lunch, and how sitting outside Greggs watching men in high-vis jackets shaped her pricing strategy. We talk about scale, magic, heart, delivery, Empire, authenticity, Nando’s, Greggs, and why growth should never be something you’re ashamed of. This is a masterclass in building a restaurant brand with soul — and keeping that soul intact across 27 sites. If you care about food, cities, entrepreneurship, culture — or how to turn anxiety into momentum — this one’s special.

    14 Guerrilla Marketing & Storytelling Strategies To Go Viral  for FREE - SULT founders

    This week on Hungry, the founders behind SULT — the electrolyte brand turning “unhinged luxury” into a cultural movement. From building a status-driven brand that people actually want to post on Instagram, to rewriting the rules of marketing in the age of TikTok and YouTube, this is a masterclass in modern brand-building. We get into why unpredictability creates obsession, why most brands overcomplicate business, and how SULT uses storytelling, sex appeal, humor, and world-building to stand out in a saturated wellness market. We talk Better & Wetter campaigns, Margot Robbie-style bath content, Hailey Bieber’s Rhode, Vivienne Westwood fashion shows, F1 boxes, Michelin-star storytelling hooks — and why the first three seconds of your content might be everything. If you’re building a brand, running a food or drink business, or trying to crack YouTube, this episode is packed with practical insight and uncomfortable truths. This isn’t just about electrolytes. It’s about status, culture, identity — and making something people feel part of. ===========ON THE MENU=========== The Wellness Culture BacklashMaking Electrolytes SexyConsistency vs Quality on SocialSocial Media Is Your CVWhat Is “Unhinged Luxury”?Unpredictability Creates ObsessionThe £15K Acoustics LessonThe Iceberg of Content CreationWhy We Can’t Crack YouTubeFrom Empty Restaurant to Michelin HookThe Hardest Thing: Having a Point of ViewWhy Status Beats Shelf SpaceDo You Fit at Vivienne Westwood or F1?Why Rhode (Hailey Bieber) WinsBusiness Is Just X to YMake Brands Simple AgainThe 3-Second Attention EconomyIgnore Traditional Marketing Rules00:00 Intro00:01 Milly’s Eating Disorder & Recovery00:05 Toxic Wellness & Running Culture00:09 SULT’s "Not That Deep" Philosophy00:14 Netflix-ification of Brand Building00:19 Ignoring Experts & Taking Risks00:24 "Unhinged Luxury" & Storytelling00:30 Scaling in Public vs Building in Public00:34 The Whiteboard Content Strategy00:42 How to Write Viral Hooks00:46 Organic Growth vs Paid Ads00:56 The Brooklyn Beckham Story01:00 Choosing Brand Colors & Standing Out01:06 Why They Ignore Business Advice01:08 The Power of Anti-Selling01:13 Building a Tribe & Status01:15 Learning from Rhode & Anti-Trends01:17 Dealing with Copycats01:20 Embracing Chaos in Business01:22 Co-Founder Dynamics & Conflict01:28 The Simon Squibb Story01:33 Simplifying Business & Branding01:37 How the Co-Founders Met01:39 Why Launch an Electrolyte Brand?01:45 The 4 Pillars of Marketing01:53 Launching in Boots & Retail Strategy01:58 Financial Transparency & Investors   🔥10x creativity beats 10x budget.

    Most companies bet everything on one big launch.Doug Lamont thinks that’s how you kill growth. In this clip, the former CEO of Tony's Chocolonely and Innocent Drinks breaks down a radically different way to scale — one built on rolling innovation, layered bets, and removing fear from failure. Instead of over-researching, over-launching, and over-spending, Doug explains why the smartest brands: - test cheaply- back winners late- kill losers fast and never rely on a single “big idea” to carry the business From product launches to international expansion, this is a masterclass in how real growth actually happens — especially from £100m → £500m+. ===============📱 ON THE MENU=============== 🎯 Why “the one big thing” strategy usually fails🔥 Rolling innovation vs over-researched launches🧠 Removing fear from failure inside big organisations📦 Why marketing can’t save products that don’t sell🌍 How country expansion really works (3–5 year bets)💰 When to actually turn on the marketing spend⚖️ Small and medium bets vs betting the house
