Ben, does hospitality run in the family? My uncle had a restaurant up the road. Two of his sons are chefs, and it turns out I have a grandparent on each side who worked as chefs, in RSL clubs.

Which ingredients are you currently excited about? Citrus fruit. Rangpur limes are tasty – they look like you’re going to bite into a mandarin, but then they taste like a lime.
