Kemal Barut (Tulum, Lezzet Melbourne) - Is hospitality broken?

Is hospitality broken? We continue asking this big question of people in the industry. Today's guest is Kemal Barut, owner of hatted Turkish restaurant Tulum and 21-year-old neighbourhood bistro Lezzet. What's changed over the years? What would Kem like to see change for the better? And how does he keep upbeat, positive and creative when the economic challenges are so intense? https://www.tulumrestaurant.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 Dirty Linen is a food podcast hosted by Australian journalist Dani Valent.
