In this episode we catch up with Paul Wedgwood co-owner of the Wedgwood restaurant in Edinburgh.

Paul started his career in the Lake District working in a variety of establishments from pubs and leisure parks to fine dining Michelin starred restaurants. He has been in Edinburgh for 13 years.

He spoke to us about how he changed his business model early in anticipation of the lockdown after noticing a 70 percent drop off in bookings as we entered March. He is now operating a delivery and takeaway service which is so popular he is back to working seven-day weeks!

He also expressed his concern over the Edinburgh festival being cancelled in August as many businesses rely on that income and how Edinburgh is a ghost town when it is normally full of tourists.
