You never know where my Kitchen Chat journey will bring me. Recently, I attended an incredible Mastermind Group in the South Florida TikiHut of Fred Fishback. What was extra special about this meeting is that Fred's father and my father were both stationed in Nuremberg post World War II after Fred's father valiantly served our country during that war. My brother sent a photo to me and it appears that Fred's father and my father are both in that picture! As you know, the reason I began my Kitchen Chat culinary journey is to honor my late father. Meeting Fred is truly a hug from heaven. And it was great to meet Fred's friend, Chris Gannon, founder of Bolay, who provided a delicious and most memorable meal to the Mastermind attendees.

During his visit to Chicago for National Restaurant Show, Chris Gannon filmed a Kitchen Chat with Chef Jaime and me at the Middleby booth. If you are an entrepreneur, you will learn some great insights into growing your own business and if you are a foodie, you will discover Bolay, a great fast casual restaurant group that Chris Gannon created to be a healthier option with nutrient rich foods.
