Gayan Pieris (Many Little, Polperro - Mornington Peninsula) - the rhythms of work and play

Gayan Pieris is executive chef at Many Little and Polperro on Victoria's Mornington Peninsula. He grew up in Sri Lanka in the middle of rice fields, eating rice at every meal, and with harvest cycles determining the rhythms of work and play. Today, Sri Lanka is struggling with runaway inflation and a depleted economy, leading to food and fuel shortages. We talk about growing your own produce in good times and hard times, and the endless joys and discoveries of rice. https://www.manylittle.com.au Follow Dirty Linen on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/dirtylinenpodcast Follow Dani Valent https://www.instagram.com/danivalent Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow Huck (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork
