Florida trip, Host stand management, opportunity to change culture
This episode I talk about my mini trip to Pensacola, Florida and the differences I noticed vs Atlanta. Louie Q dives in and talk about host stand management especially during these covid times where tensions are higher than normal. How do we handle difficult guests? How do we coach our hostesses to ensure our guests are happy? Also I talk about the opportunity to change the culture within your restaurant thanks to covid 19. What do you want your culture to look like and who are you hiring to fill that need? Episode 6 has your answers!

Sickness Awareness and Drive In Theaters
Instead of talking about Covid-19, I decided it was time to elaborate a little on one of my most popular concepts so far on the show. Restaurants will more than likely go back to normal and be a place where sick employees are encouraged to work their shift but now our guests are more aware of sickness within a resturant and could act in our favor. I really wanted to go in more depth about the drive in concept. I did not even touch on alcohol sales but I really believe the drive in will make a epic comeback!
