Meet Adam and Joe, Group Operations Manager and Executive Chef respectively at Herts Pubs. We taste a selection of incredible dishes from the menu at The Cock Hitchin, and Jamie pairs them with three very different wines.

We chat about seasonal menus, the beauty of a great hospitality moment, and plans for the next Herts Pubs opening.

Will Adam top the Corkscrew Challenge leaderboard?

Meet Tom and Giuseppe, owner and head pizzaiolo respectively at Hitchin’s busiest pub, The Vic. We talk Italian roots, the importance of community, and are treated to a sneak peek (sneak taste?) of two new dishes launching next month.

Tom and Giuseppe serve three incredible pizzas and we open three perfectly paired Italian wines.

Will Gemma and Jamie be converted to dessert pizza?

Meet Kendall Hurley, owner and baking wizard behind Hitchin’s finest microbakery, Fife Bakery. We talk food waste, provenance, and the importance of cooking with local organic ingredients. Kendall brings three sensational dishes (a loaf of bread counts as a dish, right?) and we open three perfectly paired wines (well, two wines and a cider.) Will Kendall come top of the Corkscrew Challenge leaderboard?
