Everyone thought we were nuts when we opened scratch kitchen BBQ joint in "tapas alley" in spain.

I tried to explain to everyone you CANNOT open a decent mom & pop restaurant in the US anymore, it's just not feasible.

Everyone gave us 6 months and that was 4 months before COVID hit & we're still kickin'.

There needs to be a serious overhaul in the US foodservice industry...we need to get back to our roots & make opening a sustainable location feasible again otherwise (you) are gonna be stuck with Applebucks Fridays!
