Welcome back to Mise en Place where this week we take a deep dive into the mind of Ramael Scully, the powerhouse behind London’s critically acclaimed Scully. From his early days grafting in Australian kitchens to learning from Ottolenghi and carving out his own culinary empire, Scully’s journey is packed with inspiration, grit, and game-changing ideas. Expect no-nonsense insights, jaw-dropping behind-the-scenes stories, and a masterclass in creative cooking.
He opens up about what it’s really like to be mentored by one of the world’s most influential chefs and how those early lessons shaped his fearless approach to food. His Malaysian-Australian heritage and obsession with street food have fuelled a completely unique cooking style, blending bold, unexpected flavours into dishes that Londoners can’t get enough of. But running a top restaurant isn’t just about the food—it’s about survival. Scully reveals the brutal highs and lows of the industry, from impossible customers to the relentless pursuit of perfection.
And then there’s the future of food. Fermentation, zero waste, multi-layered flavour explosions—Scully is rewriting the rulebook on how we cook, eat, and think about ingredients. For food lovers, ambitious chefs, and anyone obsessed with the art of eating well, this episode is an absolute must-listen. Download now and get stuck in.
