In Episode 51 Derek is joined by one of Scotland's 25 most influential women Julie Linn MacLeod.

Julie, who's family hail from Malaysia, talks about her experiences of growing up in Glasgow, her mothers stories from being a health worker in Glasgow during the Ice Cream Wars and how the street food stalls in Malaysia have influenced her cooking.

We discuss Julie's restaurant Julie's Kopitiam in Glasgow's Southside. Julie details how lockdown has affected the hospitality industry & the importance of a good work-life balance.

Derek and Julie touch on racism in Glasgow, machoism and the hierarchy that has historically existed in kitchens and lots more.

Thanks to Chris and the team at Scran Glasgow for hosting us for filming and recording.
