Seasons
Ravneet Gill and her husband Mattie risk it all as they take on the challenge of opening their own restaurant using only their personal savings.
E1What's on the Menu?
Oct 9, 2025
Ravneet and Mattie gear up to open their very first restaurant from scratch – their take on a traditional chop house. They test out a pork and mash recipe and a unique Black Forest Gateau. The builders are kept happy with spicy sausage rolls.
E2Foodie Heritage
Oct 9, 2025
With two months until the restaurant launch, Ravneet and Mattie are £70,000 over budget with a century-old balustrade to repair. They experiment with a delicious take on fish and chips and locally grown salad. Ravneet also makes her mum's chicken pulao.
E3Lunchtime Special
Oct 16, 2025
Stress levels are high. Renovations continue round the clock. But Ravneet and Mattie escape to test some lunchtime recipes of traditional Tottenham cake and glazed ham with cheesy leek gratin. Rav seeks the chef behind her favourite chocolate tart.
E4Friends and Family
Oct 16, 2025
As the restaurant sign is finally fitted, the pair celebrate by making Mattie's mum's famous tomato pasta. Fresh produce suppliers need to be found. And Ravneet is making a trifle with fresh strawberry jelly - but will it pass her mum's taste test?
E5All the Kitchen Toys
Oct 23, 2025
The restaurant renovation is scarily behind schedule. When the grill and oven arrive, Ravneet cooks up a steak and ale pie with marrow bone and Mattie tests out a lamb chop, bacon and pea recipe. Ravneet heads to Cornwall in search of the perfect eggs.
E6Flour Power
Oct 23, 2025
Twelve days to opening night, the restaurant dream is becoming reality. Ravneet convinces Mattie that delectable vol-au-vents with homemade puff pastry should make the menu plus homemade bread. Mattie makes gluten free vegetarian ratatouille.
E7Retro Classics
Oct 30, 2025
Ravneet whips up a classic rum baba with boozy parfait and the pair step back in time with their take on seafood cocktails. Ravneet swaps the renovation chaos for a trip to Cornwall seeking fresh air and fresh seafood for the menu.
E8The Final Countdown
Oct 30, 2025
The crockery, glassware and bespoke lamps have arrived at the restaurant building site. Ravneet is perfecting a tangy raspberry souffle with pistachio custard. And Mattie tests out the new kitchen grill with a special burger recipe with homemade sauce.
E9Chingford Be Our Guest
Nov 6, 2025
Five days until launch and the menu is still being tested. Winged ribs and a spectacular Pavlova earn an easy place – but cheese is a harder sell. Despite only one oven up and running they feed the local high-street in a fabulous tasting party.
E10Prepare to Launch
Nov 6, 2025
Four months of hard graft and opening night is finally here. Mattie and Ravneet must impress sixty guests. Classy canapes and a nostalgic classic cheese and potato pie are served up. But what will fellow foodies, family and friends really think?
