On the Eater 38, Opening a Restaurant in NYC, and the Rise of Food Content Creators

Once again, I'm joined by James Iranzad (Gooseneck Hospitality) and James Langford-Smith (Pamplemousse Jus), as we dig into a few topics that have been top of mind lately...We kick things off by unpacking what the BCGEU strike has meant for the hospitality industry, and how we can better protect ourselves during future labour negotiations. From there, the discussion shifts to Nikki Bayley’s latest, and we imagine curating our own version; we touch on the recent New York Times feature following two restaurateurs, with limited money and experience, trying to open restaurants in NYC; wrapping it all up with a recent Vancouver Sun column about the rise of food content creators, and how social media is shaping the way diners experience food culture in Vancouver.Always good fun when we chat.
