Episode Details

From long nights in the kitchen to wild days in Sydney’s underground scene, chef Nic Bourke has lived a life few could imagine. In this raw conversation, Nic opens up about her rise through Australia’s restaurant industry — from gruelling 100-hour apprenticeship weeks to cooking for rockstars, ambassadors and presidents. She shares unfiltered stories of survival in a male-dominated world, encounters with fame, and the chaotic mix of hard work, excess and resilience that defined the culinary underworld of the 80s and 90s.
