Wrath - What makes you angry about the hospitality industry?
Arrogance from people within the industry, we’re here to make customers happy, but we also need respect from customers too.
Greed - If all your food fantasies came true what would be on your Plate?
Lamb and langoustines – delicious!
Sloth - What do you do to unwind?
Ideally it’s watching football, having a few beers with the boys and talking about anything other than work. Nowadays, I try and finish work at a reasonable time on Sunday night, and chill out with Nikki my partner and Heaney’s General Manager and the kids.
Pride - What are you most proud of?
Achieving our Kickstarter and opening Heaney’s. I’m also proud of all of our staff at Heaney’s- we couldn’t do it without them.
Lust - Is there anything that you are still lusting to achieve?
Satisfaction! I rate success on how satisfied you are, and I am never satisfied!
Envy - who are you most envious of?
Anybody with spare time on their hands. I would love to see the kids more, travel, and be more organised!
Gluttony - have you ever over indulged?
Where do I start!
