In tonight's 2 part episode, I catch up with Westmere hospo classic, Brodie McDonald. Brodie is the current owner/operator of Seabreeze which was formerly known as Meola Kitchen back in the day, and also where he started up as a dishy. After calling it quits and thinking hospo wasn't for him, he quickly asked for his job back after receiving some sudden news.
He moved on to open up Johnny Feedback with best pal Steven Acres for a year long adventure of coffee slinging, and then invested in Running Horse. Working closely with supplier legend Coffee Supreme for years, Brodie has also had die-hard customers, suppliers, and generally, just super supportive people keen to see him succeed, drink good coffee, and eat yum food. 
If you've been living under a rock and haven't had the chance to get into Seabreeze, stop what you're doing right now and get in there for a coffee, maybe a brioche, and definitely the Bharta Eggs. 
Located at: 184 Garnet Road

In this weeks' episode, my former ship mate and I reminisce about the time in our lives where we found ourselves waiting tables aboard a cruise ship that sailed through the Hawaiian Islands. 
What we had hoped would be an exciting adventure filled with beach days, convertibles, and mai tai's, ended up being 14 hour shifts, hair nets, and a lot of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.

Hospo Bimbo premieres with a very special guest, talented actress, and a close friend of mine: Brooke Petersen! Brooke has been in the hospitality industry for 20 years and has a few stories up her sleeve.

Here we chat about death metal milk steaming, serving celebrities, being a mom, first jobs, and having grown men yell "F*CK YOU" in your face in the middle of a god damn brunch.

Enjoy.
