Hi guys! Hannah and Charlotte here 👋 Welcome to our podcast journey!

We started this podcast as we thought combining our passions of food, hospitality and girl power was a match made in heaven! While we are girly girls at heart, we’ve always had a lot to say for ourselves about female empowerment and feminist issues - so we thought why not put our discussions into a podcast for you guys to join in! (Whilst eating & reviewing delicious food ofc)

A key aim of ours is to support local businesses and help them to get all the awareness they deserve, so you can expect new recommendations per episode of some of our favourite finds!

At times like these it’s really important to stay engaged and keep these conversations going, and we can wait to get started.

Follow us for some overall pick me ups and recommendations of our top local restaurants.
