Tony and the folks at Tandem went into COVID with three restaurants and came out of it with ten plus three consulting opportunities, totaling thirteen businesses they are working on today. Tony has an inspiring story and a genuine love for his industry. Enjoy! 

Two of Schedulefly's customers just won the two biggest James Beard awards, Outstanding Chef (Mashama Bailey, The Grey, Savannah, GA) and Outstanding Restaurant (Chai Pani, Asheville, N.C.). We read some quotes from their acceptance speeches on this episode. 

Keli has been in the business since she was 16 years old. She earned a Journalism degree at Ohio State University but never stopped loving hospitality, and she's never worked in any other industry. We talked a lot about wine, about culture, learning from places she's had to close, opening in new markets, and more. Keli is super kind, fun to talk to, and perfectly suited for hospitality. Enjoy...
