Nick Tannett, Moi

Hey folks, welcome back to the Scoop podcast. I think a lot of us worry about decision-making, choosing the “right” thing and fulfilling other people’s expectations. Hopefully I’m not just projecting when I say that… but talking to Nick Tannett, the head chef of Moi in Soho, I recognised that mutual feeling. Nick became a chef at the age of 25. Previously, he had worked at the foreign office after studying languages at university. Since 25, he made the switch, and he has gone from strength to strength working in some of the most interesting kitchens in London - Planque, Kitchen Table and Endo at the Rotunda. He has now taken the reins for the opening of Moi, a Japanese-inspired restaurant on Wardour Street. Let this conversation prove that you’re never behind and that the kitchen's creativity and communal nature are powerful. I’m Stella, and I’m gonna take you out for dinner.
