Listen "Niall McKenna & Marion Lancial"
Episode Synopsis
Running a restaurant business is definitely not for the faint of heart. Jim meets celebrated Belfast chef Niall McKenna and Normandy native Marion Lancial who has made Northern Ireland her home, to explore the highs and lows of running a restaurant. From choosing the financial crisis or the eve of the Covid lockdowns to expand; to managing the accumulated costs of each broken glass (that’s the equivalent of throwing a steak in the bin); to the joys of celebrating the best local produce and making people happy. Niall and Marion offer a unique insight into the trade and offer up some business tips that will make sense to anyone dealing with the kinetic environment we all face today.Brought to you in association with EY.The views and opinions expressed by guests on this podcast are their own and do not reflect the views or positions of EY or its other member Firms.
