Tom Shepherd and Thom Bateman

Grilled by The Staff Canteen

Welcome to Grilled by The Staff Canteen, this is series 5 and it's our first episode with co-host Tom Shepherd. He has previously worked for Michale Wignall and Sat Bains and achieved his fist Michelin star just months after opening his own restaurant, Upstairs in Lichfield - you may also know him for his banana dessert on Great British Menu and his love of dressing up as banana man!
Tom has picked five guests from the hospitality industry and celebs with an interest in food, to chat to and put under the Grilled spotlight, and his first guest is fellow Great British Menu chef, Thom Bateman.
In this episode we talk to Thom about what he would do if he was a woman for a day, what he dislikes about the industry, his obessesive personality and why he decided to come back in to the industry after leaving due to mental health.
