Ben Lippett - Disastrous Staff Meals - Hallucinating In A Melbourne Restaurant Kitchen & The Glories Of His New Cookbook!

We’re joined once again by the moustachioed marvel himself, Ben Lippett — ex-chef, recipe writer, and the creative force behind Dinner by Ben. This time he’s back with something truly special: his debut cookbook, landing next week. Over an incredible spread pulled straight from its pages, Ben talks us through the dishes that shaped the book — from chicken with hot green tahini to his legendary focaccia — and why he believes real cooking at home doesn’t need to be rushed, dumbed down, or intimidating. We dig into the philosophy behind the recipes, the importance of seasoning (and knowing when to stop), why mistakes are part of the process, and how to find joy in cooking food you’re actually hungry for. Ben also reflects on his journey from tough restaurant kitchens in Melbourne, New York, and London to food media, Mob, and now his first solo book. Expect candid stories of nightmare staff meals, offal experiments that didn’t make the cut, dream restaurant weekends away, and the dishes that still blow his mind. With 110 recipes across 10 chapters, Ben’s book is generous, deeply practical, and packed with the kind of know-how that makes you a better, more confident cook. Pre-order now (link in bio) and join us for a behind-the-scenes taste of one of the most exciting cookbook launches of the year.
