Fixing Restaurants, Behavioural Science, Working With Marco Pierre White - Eat Club co-founder, Pan Koutlakis

How do we ACTUALLY save restaurants from closing?

The UK government aren’t gonna save hospitality… but Marco Pierre White and Pan Koutlakis think they have the answer with Eat Club.

Restaurants.

It’s easier than you think to save your restaurants.

Are you going to be your neighbor?

What’s FUCKING MENTAL is most punters don’t even know.

This cataclysmic earthquake is brewing in the background.

Behind the warm hug of hospitality hides the cold bite of fear.

You revel in merriment, operators reel in morbid fear.

Fear of closure. Fear of NI increase. Fear.

In the dining room, your giggling gaggle laughs over languid luncheon.

In the back room, the howling fantods scream up operators’ bones.

Think of your favourite restaurant for one second… do you realise how scary it is right now?

HUNGRY.
The Swedish Focus Expert: How to 10x Your Brand Growth in 12 Months - Henrik Grim, Mimo

In this episode of the Hungry Podcast, Henrik Grim, co-founder of Mimo, sits down to share the lessons he’s learned from scaling startups, investing in brands, and navigating the brutal realities of cash flow. From his early days at iZettle and Spotify to launching Mimo, Henrik traces the path that shaped his approach to building companies with purpose and resilience.

He explains why cash flow is the make-or-break factor for consumer brands, how raising money is more of an art than a science, and why Sweden’s cultural DNA — rooted in the “Law of Jante” and flat hierarchies — has influenced the way startups are built. Henrik dives into what sets apart the businesses that succeed, from customer obsession and competitive urgency to knowing when data is helpful — and when it just creates noise.

Along the way, Henrik reflects on personal challenges: balancing founder obsession with family life, grappling with insecurities, and learning how to give ownership and responsibility to others. He draws sharp parallels between competitive sailing, his sport of choice growing up, and entrepreneurship — from reading the conditions to finding your own path rather than following competitors.

This conversation is packed with insights on startup culture, fundraising, prioritization, customer focus, and leadership — all delivered with Henrik’s mix of candor, humility, and hard-won experience.

How I Made Millions Supplying The Worlds Best Restaurants Fruit & Veg - The River Cafe, Per Se, The Devonshire

Franco Fubini was born in Argentina, raised in Italy, educated in America, and built his career in London.

He’s worked for Goldman Sachs, Apple, and luxury food brand Valderrama.

But then came Natoora.

Today, Franco is the founder of Natoora – the chef-obsessed fruit & veg supplier, serving Ottolenghi, Dan Barber, and Alain Ducasse.

This episode is an eye-opener into food systems, supermarket power, and how our plates shape the planet.

ON THE MENU:

  1. Growing up between Argentina, Italy & the U.S. – how culture shapes taste.
  2. The Goldman Sachs years – why Franco walked away from banking.
  3. Apple’s obsession with perfection – and how it influenced Natoora.
  4. Alain Ducasse, Dan Barber & Ottolenghi – building trust with world-class chefs.
  5. Why supermarkets destroyed seasonality – and how Natoora fights back.
  6. The hidden cost of cheap fruit & veg – why “local” doesn’t always mean good.
  7. How Natoora built a supply chain from scratch – and why it matters.
  8. Why chefs are the real gatekeepers of better farming.
  9. The problem with food labels, and why transparency beats marketing.
  10. Franco’s long-term vision – a revolution in how we eat and farm.

An honest, global, and deeply inspiring conversation with one of food’s great challengers.

The Truth Behind Exiting Your Brand For Millions - 22 Lessons from Fuel10k Founder

Barney believed a £50 million pound deal was on the table… but he was nervous.

The year before he’d been stung.

Stung sharp. Like vinegar and scratched in a paper cut.

Barney got so close. Breathtakingly close. Frustratingly close.

Fuel10k’s Dream Exit.

Big Poppa Dough. Life-changing coin.

Fell through,last minute.

Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

This time, Barney was serious.

A balmy Spring evening. Italian restaurant. Belgravia.

Over seafood spaghetti and red wine

Barney looked deep into the white of his eyes.

Unflinchingly, Barney said

“Are Premier serious this time?”

This timePremier were.

October 2024, Barney got the big exit.

Founders,

Navigating the “exit” is perturbingly discombobulating

The 2D map never predicts the 3D terrain

Barney and I dive deep into nuances of the 3D exit terrain

It’s Easier Than You Think To Exit Your Brand For Millions - Fuel10k Founder


ON THE MENU:

  1. Why premier foods almost pulled out of the deal? 95% of deals fall through
  2. It’s ain’t a deal, till the second deal is done, It ain’t a thing until it’s a thing
  3. Plan A vs Plan Bcarry on building the business
  4. Thinking about exit will disrupt the karma in your business
  5. 10 million revenueStrong EBITDAHow do private equity 3x your business
  6. Retrospective strategising is dangerous
  7. Why will this person buy your business? Didn’t have a breakfast range, protein lasting trend
  8. Do One Thing Well. Why Fuel10K owned breakfast first, then stretched to morning
  9. Language is the biggest barrier to communication
  10. Personalities: people buy from people
  11. Failure Porn vs Mistake Porn:
  12. Skunk Works: small companies and can move fast
  13. Why would someone buy your brand?
  14. How much would this business multiply for?
  15. Do research on your buyer
  16. Two characters into the same meeting
  17. Innocent: codify your values + Codify your values, very, very tightly
  18. People vs Perspective
  19. Become big one to one buyer: One occasion in the morning, you’re going to dilute somewhere
  20. Tidy yourself up as business to get a massive exit
  21. 2D Map vs 3D Terrain:
  22. ALL IN. GO ALL IN. Necessity is the biggest motivator
