Jake Nicolson (Ghanem Group) - Looking Back, Looking Forward

Dirty Linen's 2021 season kicks off with Looking Back, Looking Forward. We take stock and press on! Our first guest is Jake Nicolson, executive chef at the Ghanem Group, which has multiple restaurants in Brisbane (Blackbird, Donna Chang and more) and Melbourne (Byblos, Le Bon Ton). Jake talks about leadership, processes and mentoring, particularly in the context of young chefs who are missing out on their tour of duty to places like London or New York. Can they learn enough in their own backyard? https://www.ghanemgroup.com.au LISTEN TO OUR OTHER PODCASTS Dirty Linen with Dani Valent https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/dirty-linen-a-food-podcast-with-dani-valent/id1518946986 The Crackling with Anthony Huckstep https://linktr.ee/thecrackling 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/
