Welcome to The Go-To Weekend, your ultimate guide to making the most of your days off. Hosted by Sunday Times deputy food editor Hannah Evans and Foodism deputy editor Molly Codyre, we’re here delivering the hottest tips on where to go, what to eat, and what not to miss this weekend, all with a sharp eye, a raised glass, and zero tolerance for nonsense.This week, we’re taking in the scent of Tom Straker’s candle—does it whisper ‘buttery bliss’ or just smell like burning cash? And speaking of money, we’re tackling International Women’s Day, the gender pay gap, and why letting your partner pick up the tab might just be a sleeper act of economic rebalancing.Meanwhile, we reminisce about the golden age of Big Mamma Group restaurant launches - back when treating yourself didn’t require financial planning and leaving a restaurant launch in an ambulance wasn’t quite the faux par it might be today.Then, with St Patrick’s Day looming, we get stuck into the internet boxing match of the year, Ellis vs Corcoran, before we brace for the inevitable onslaught of Guinness brosplaining while making the case for Beamish as the superior pint. Plus, in a twist that defies all logic, we investigate Guinness as a health food—its surprising role in weight loss and post-pregnancy recovery.Click here to listen and follow the show; https://linktr.ee/gotoweekend Hosted on Acast.
