Fast Eddie: Can Eddie Navarrette save California restaurants? Plus, Something About Her blues.


Listen Later

Eddie Navarrette is the Executive Director of the Independent Hospitality Coalition in addition to being one of LA’s foremost consultants in helping restaurants navigate the debilitatingly confusing process of opening their doors. He’s been at the center of advocating for restaurants for several years now, helping shape much needed policies for boosting our restaurants during these unprecedented difficult times.
We walk through his circuitous career journey, which includes playing in punk rock bands and joining the circus. And we also discuss many of the issues plaguing restaurants today and what IHC is looking to do about them.
Plus, Something About Her sandwiches, World's 50 Best talk and the LA Times continues to cover struggling restaurants.
