Gill, Harold Pinter, Graham Norton, Apple, Kodak, IBM, The Beatles, New York brasseries, Parisian cafés, class in Britain, and why every great creative or political movement may have started in a restaurant.  This one is unforgettable.A conversation about restaurants, yes — but really about how to live, lead, notice, change, and leave the world slightly better than you found it.ON THE MENU:00:00:00 Intro00:03:03 Why Restaurants Must Always Change00:05:46 Why Leadership Is A Benign Dictatorship00:07:24 Maintaining Standards Leads To Bankruptcy00:13:47 Why Restaurants Get Defensive00:17:35 Why Enough Is Never Enough00:20:06 Why Altruism Still Matters00:22:13 When Jeremy Refuses A Booking00:26:06 The Silent Couple At Mirabelle00:32:08 Arlington, Soho And Restaurant Design00:35:55 Why Great Restaurants Are Egalitarian00:41:18 Why Money Ruins Taste00:43:49 What Makes The Best Restaurant?00:47:43 Why Restaurants Need Creative People00:49:43 How Le Caprice Changed Service00:55:19 Why Culture Hates Real Change00:59:49 Why Strong Opinions Win01:03:00 How To Prepare For Death01:05:14 Why Jeremy Has Regrets Every Day01:06:16 The Power Of Happy Problems01:08:30 Why Jeremy Finally Wrote A Book01:15:12 Why Restaurant Work Changes Young People01:18:31 How Shyness Became Jeremy’s Advantage01:20:17 Can Dogs Sense Us Coming Home?01:24:11 Why We’ve Lost...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/gxmV4UzMdxQXxd72h-fgEanMz6IG37j1u683zTmU0ac/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS85ZGI4/Y2FkNjcwNmEwMDNm/YWUwOTcyZTM0YzYw/YWU3My5qcGVn.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
