Are we in a new era for hotel restaurants?

@bencreeklondon thinks so.

This week on @dirtylinenpodcast, we chat to Ben, Vice President of Food & Beverage in Asia and the Pacific for @all.accor_pacific.

From great coffee to smarter buffets to inclusive employment and AI, he shares the levers he’s pulling to make sure hotel hospitality is attractive to locals and visitors alike.

The day after this chat, I went to @flaminia_sydney at an Accor property in Sydney...and it was absolutely great.

Listen to Dirty Linen wherever you find podcasts.

What @jobarrett did next.

She started cooking at @surfhotel_torquay using invasive species harvested via @discovered_foods.

One is this delicious and nutritious venison schnitzel.

Watch Jo and chef Aaron Brodie make it here, and stay till the end to see how happy I am to spend the night at this super cool retro seaside motel.

Is there anything more perfect than an oyster?

@isabellepearl runs @finnsoysterbar which offers just-shucked bliss at events. She also works for @shuckdontchuck, which collects oyster shells to use in reef rehab.

Finn’s is named for Bella’s son Finn, who died in 2019 aged 13 months. The grief is always present but there’s joy too.

"If you’d told me three years ago that 'attend Royal Commission on Antisemitism and Social Cohesion' was in my 2026 diary, I would have asked if you were feeling all right. But here we are. Or here I am, anyway, sitting in an office building in Clarence Street, Sydney, getting ready to read out a story I wrote for an anthology," writes @danivalent.

Valent shares what it’s like to tell the royal commission, and the world, about her experiences of life as a Jewish Australian at the link in bio.⁠

A big, important, brave chat.

Returning to @dirtylinenpodcast after a huge 16 months, @umbertoespressobar ’s Marco Finanzio has changed the shape of his business, closing venues and refocusing.

In hard times, what matters? Who are we accountable to? What is the mission? A bowl of pasta might be part of the answer…
