Welcome to a special intro episode where your three hosts finally meet! Kieron Bailey from the UK, Chrissy Symeonakis from Australia, and Susan Tung from Canada get together across three time zones to share the stories behind their love affair with hospitality.

This is the conversation you'd have over drinks after a long shift. The hosts talk about the weirdest things they've seen customers order, their go-to comfort foods (hello, McDonald's and dirty kebabs), and those pet peeves that every hospitality pro understands. They open up about how they got into the industry, often by accident, and share food memories that still bring them joy years later.

If you've ever wondered who's behind Restaurant Talk and why they're so passionate about sharing stories from the industry, this episode gives you a front-row seat to their world. It's funny, it's real, and it's a reminder of why hospitality is about so much more than just serving food.

Restaurant Talk is brought to you by Save Fry Oil with Frylow - because nobody wants to talk about fryer oil until they see their invoice.

"If you hadn't done all those jobs, you wouldn't be able to do what you do now."

"I look at some of these customer reviews and go, what the fuck is wrong with you? Stay home."

"Marketing works. I don't know what you did, but we've got heaps of extra customers tonight."
