Welcome to Towpath – a restaurant made up of four little kiosks along Regent's Canal in East London. Inspired by their recent cookbook Towpath: Recipes & Stories, founders Lori de Mori and Laura Jackson bring together the voices of Towpath’s dearest friends, loyal regulars, and the team behind the scenes, as well as the sounds of the bustling canal surrounding them.

Part 1 delves into how Lori and Laura started their careers in food, and where their inspiration for Towpath began.  Laura sits down with chef and food writer Rosie Sykes, who's had a huge influence on the Towpath kitchen, and is the source of some classic Towpath dishes such as their Bacon and Egg Pie with Rhubarb Ketchup. Laura and Rosie look at what the challenges and joys are of working in the Towpath kitchen, and how the food and menu has changed over time. 

Pick up their new book Towpath: Recipes & Stories directly from Towpath Café, or from Bookshop.org or your favourite bookstore.
