from Dirty Linen - A Food Podcast with Dani Valent · host A Deep in the Weeds Production
Chantal de Fraga owns three Richmond pubs, Kingston Hotel, Swan Hotel and Public House. We focus on staffing in this episode, an instant crisis as Melbourne restaurants reopen with a much smaller pool of potential employees to draw on. Many internationals have departed, erstwhile hospo staff have taken employment in other industries and some are content to sit on JobSeeker for now. As Melbourne heads towards COVID-normal, Dirty Linen is easing back into its original format: a week on a topic that's at the heart of hospo. This week is staff - let us know if you have a story that needs telling! https://www.thekingstonhotel.com Follow Dirty Linen on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/deepintheweedspodcast/?hl=en Follow Dani https://www.instagram.com/danivalent Follow Deep In The Weeds on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/deepintheweedspodcast/?hl=en Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow Huck (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/
