Rita's didn't become one of London's most respected restaurants overnight. Before the success came years of evolution, closed sites, tight margins and difficult decisions.
In this episode of Staying Open, Natalia Ribbe sits down with Missy Flynn and Gabriel Pryce to discuss their long careers in hospitality, the research trips across North and South America that helped shape their approach to food, and how they brought fresh ideas and influences back to the UK.
They share the challenges of finding a concept that worked, the realities of building a restaurant through reinvention, and the passion behind creating food with genuine stories to tell. We also discuss trend-setting dishes and drinks, from Rita's iconic devilled eggs to the now-famous mini martini, and why great service remains one of the most overlooked parts of hospitality.
We talk about resilience, creativity, hospitality, and what it really takes to stay open.

Wilson's is a Michelin-starred restaurant in Bristol run by husband-and-wife team Jan Ostle and Mary Wilson. Growing much of their own produce just outside the city, they've built a restaurant rooted in the land, the seasons and a deep commitment to sustainability.
What they've created is remarkable but building a restaurant around nature, unpredictability and the realities of modern hospitality comes with its own pressures.
In this first episode of Staying Open, we discuss addiction, working alongside your partner and keeping your cool when things get heated in the kitchen.
