Have you ever thought about opening up your own restaurant, food or catering business? This is the episode for you! Episode 21 is a little detour from our regular programming, but it’s still about food and nutrition. I chat with Nick Bishop, the owner of Fork-in Aussie Pies, which has locations in Santa Monica and Inglewood, California, as well as wholesale and catering.

Nick shares his tips on getting into the restaurant, food or catering business, how to determine if you have what it takes to work in this competitive industry, how to work with a chef and more. Originally from Adelaide, Australia, his pies differ from traditional Australian savory pies, due to the influence of his chef. We also chat about what an Australian pie is, and how it differs from an English savory pie and about their gluten-free, vegan and dairy-free options.
