    Wrath - What makes you angry about the hospitality industry?
    Josh Eggleton Seven Sins
    The lack of people coming into it, it’s a great trade to work in. I also think the government could help support the industry more.
     
    Greed - If all your food fantasies came true what would be on your Plate?
    Josh Eggleton Seven Sins
    You can’t eat everything at once, but I would love a hot and cold shellfish platter.
     
    Sloth - What do you do to unwind?
    Josh Eggleton Seven Sins
    Watch Star Trek!
     
    Pride - What are you most proud of?
    Josh Eggleton Seven Sins
    The lovely people I work with!
     
    Lust - Is there anything that you are still lusting to achieve?
    Josh Eggleton Seven Sins
    I want to work forever; if you can get everything done in your lifetime then you’re not achieving enough.
     
    Envy - who are you most envious of?
    Josh Eggleton Seven Sins
    I don’t envy anyone; you make your own fate. I have respect for people!
     
    Gluttony - have you ever over indulged? 
    Josh Eggleton Seven Sins
    All the time, especially when me and my chefs go on eating tours!
