Kebabs, Sake Bombs, and Space Rock: Chef's Night Out with Rita’s

We spent a boozy and boisterous evening with the crew from Rita's, including chef Gabriel Pryce, resident cocktail expert Missy Flynn, and their business partner and "papa" Deano Jo. The trio takes us on a meat- and alcohol-heavy tour of Hackney, London, and introduces us to a few of their regular haunts, finishing the night with raucous live music from Riddles at everyone's favourite dive bar: The Alibi.

This was by far the least pretentious episode in this series.

[@pifflepockle]

Sarcasm?

[@pifflepockle]

Magnetic Vortex I’m fully aware of this. Wankers

[@chain2mnm1]

Quite the contrary. Not sure if you are being sarcastic though.

[@tomfitzgerald4760]

This is like a great socialising simulator while I'm stuck in lockdown

[@Bosfammm]

I’ve worked in a couple of kitchen in my life time, and let me tell ya, chefs can party, like ripping up the town party. We used to bar hop almost every Friday, we close at 10pm, and have to show up @930 the next day for 11am opening. I honestly can’t recall what happened most of those nights, but the ones I do remember, boy, was it the best time of my life. It was truly sad I had to leave the industry for financial reasons

[@lyricalstyles]

Same but then I became overweight and had a drug addiction. I still work as a cook but gave up the drugs and drinking and started hitting the gym. While my coworkers are out getting wasted I clock out and go home to my wife and kids. Still some of the best times of my life though.

[@chocho12321]

are you guys kidding me? this was actually a solid chef's night out. Remember the goddamn momofuku milk bar episode? that was a terrible one.

...now i have to watch the momofuku milk bar episode

[@오세륜]

chocho12321 ahahah true..horrible..they are noisy AF

It wasn't though. This guy is not from Hackney. Everything about it is fake middle class bullshit. I grew up 15 mins from hackney, I know this is gentrified fake bullshit.

I think Vice was like shit this is a fuckin good edit, and then tossed in more footage, cos you never usually see the prep of the return meal. good shit man Missy is touchy when drunk 0_0

[@chefmike9945]

Lot's of drinking. Lot's of fun. Lot's of food, delicious son. Definitely one of the better episodes. Thank you Munchies. Please keep sharing these talented videos. Blessings ChefMike

Hey I’ve got a food series called breaking bread and am looking for a partner to make content, I want someone who is looking to tell the story behind people and their food. Would any of you be interested? I have some episodes in production, if this sounds right for you happy to chat and create something special

[@mrebola9078]

The English have mastered the drinking culture to the point where we can get shit faced without saying 'woo' and making a big deal out of it . Yanks need to grow up

[@CrestedRegion]

how about y'all master dental hygiene? its easy to generalize huh

[@RedRedMCmusic]

Lmfaoo the dental hygiene one!! Burn!

[@karl_franks]

RedRedMCmusic ignoring the fact that "burn" is a lazy outdated stereotype, it's fine we can take it we'll get treated for that burn with our free healthcare

[@WONandDONE]

Anyone who says you "need to grow up" really doesn't know what life's about. Fun. If you're not enjoying yourself, what's the point?

[@Tywithay]

Did you miss the part when they were splashing alcohol everywhere and destroying glasses?

[@elmoelmoelmo]

fka twigs at 2:32

[@andresbaroja6703]

oh shit!

holy shit he's right

[@boredoflife8703]

Please explain what do you mean

[@EtopiaCA]

@@boredoflife8703 FKA Twigs is a musician, she was on the far right at 2:32.

[@theubermensche1]

Justt for any non-Londoners seeing this, don't get any ideas. This is NOT how Londoners live. Even for the uber cool crowd - this is not ordinary. You can't walk out of your house on a whim, drop into a really nice restaurant, then drop into a gig. That is not ordinary. That would take out around £150 out of your pockets - and anyone that cool doesn't earn that much money.

[@willsndvl]

best episode. florence welch and fka twigs in the bar like no big deal. if i ever find myself in the uk, i must stop by here.

[@CarrionSmile]

This is one of the most realistic, down to earth groups of ppl I've seen on Munchies so far. I love it.
