2.4.21 Eileen Garcia: Lots of Optimism + A Can-Do Attitude = Great Hospitality

Over the last twenty years Eileen Garcia and her chef husband Chepe have literally built restaurants from the ground up.  Together, they turned Chicago’s award-winning Buona Terra and Hearth & Crust into iconic neighborhood destinations.  Along the way, they’ve overcome every challenge in the proverbial restaurant startup handbook. In this episode, Eileen describes their path to success and what the current pandemic has wrought for them as they actually look forward to growth.
 
Eileen’s infectious optimism and common-sense approach to solving problems can provide inspiration and solutions for everyone in the foodservice world, especially during these tough times.  We encourage operators, suppliers and anyone else interested in best-in-class hospitality to listen to her story, and when possible, visit their restaurants.  We can’t think of better ways to help set new goals as we begin to see the light at the end of the COVID-19 tunnel.
