Effusive, funny, game-changing, Rose Previte is an award-winning restaurateur who has expanded our knowledge of international street food at Compass Rose as well as with Caucasian, North African, and Middle Eastern dishes at Maydan. She shares details of her highly anticipated new projects including Go There Wines, which highlights the wines of lesser-known wine-making regions including one of her favorite places on earth, Georgia:

"When Russia cut off importing wines from Georgia, as punishment for a war in 2006, it really hurt the economy. But I was like, 'I'm gonna flip this on its head.' I'm going to sell as much Georgian wine as I possibly can. It's my little Putin protest."

Listen in for more on Rose's fascinating travels, her globe-changing social enterprises, and the story of how a life-changing moment arose on the Trans Siberian railroad in the dead of winter.
