Restaurant Rescue (2018 - 2018)

Leicester's Lilu was opened in honour of owner Pratik's late mother, with whom he had hoped to run it. After two tough years, can Alex and Oliver help Pratik to find an a la carte approach that fits his ambitions?

Oliver Peyton and Alex Polizzi visit the Nook and Cranny in Hampshire where after years of working in other people's kitchens, chef Malcolm has fulfilled his ambition by opening his own restaurant. However, three years on - and with a wife and seven children to support - putting his passion on a plate is costing him dearly. It soon becomes apparent that Malcolm is cooking with his heart rather than his head, and in doing so has ignored potential business right on his doorstep, so Alex and Oliver compile a list of recommendations to help transform him from a good chef into a great businessman.
