Welcome to Grilled by The Staff Canteen, this is series 5 and it's our third episode with co-host Tom Shepherd. He has previously worked for Michael Wignall and Sat Bains and achieved his fist Michelin star just months after opening his own restaurant, Upstairs in Lichfield - you may also know him for his banana dessert on Great British Menu and his love of dressing up as banana man!
Tom has picked five guests from the hospitality industry and celebs with an interest in food, to chat to and put under the Grilled spotlight, and his third guest is two Michelin-starred chef, Paul Ainsworth.
In this episode we talk to Paul about his career highlights, keeping a straight face while judging Tom dressed as banana man on Great British Menu and behind the scenes of Marlow to Marseille for Tom Kerridge's 50th.
