Behind closed doors at PRIDE 2022

Hello and welcome to Raising the bar and the People who make hospitality podcast. Jana Puisa and Jonny Blake have joined forces to create some really good content for you. You might have listened to the podcast previously, but now the podcast is even better and even bigger. Raising the bar is a new place to find out what's happening within MAB. From the horse's mouth to you, without any of the waffle. Just real people telling their stories.

Welcome to the latest episode - behind closed doors at the PRIDE event. This time Jonny and Jana had an exclusive peek behind the curtain to see how this event actually gets created and how much effort goes in each time.

They spoke to Gary Richmond, who leads MAB apprentices in Hilton kitchens and  Peter Skyhammar, who created the winning dish that was served on the evening for the City Division. 

Jonny also interviewed to some of our drink suppliers - Nick Clements and Luke Morris from Asahi who have been working with MAB for years. They gave an insight into what's it's like to work at the event and why it is so important to them to support MAB managers.

And finally Jana chatted to Nikki Yeomans who has been the key organiser of the event for quite a few years now. She spoke about how long it takes to put the event together, how many people are involved and finally, what gave her an inspiration for the theme this year.
