Hosted ByAnthony Huckstep

The Deep in the Weeds podcast with Anthony Huckstep features conversations with chefs, food producers and the hospitality industry.

Deep in the Weeds is a food podcast hosted by Anthony Huckstep in conversation with chefs, food producers and members of the hospitality industry. An Australian Food Podcast from the Deep in the Weeds Network.

Hospitality is an industry that has been judged, critiqued and filtered by the food media – something Host Anthony Huckstep had been part of, but Deep in the Weeds removes the filter by creating an opportunity to change the conversation of food in Australia and globally with those colouring our culinary landscape.
