My string of interviews continues this week as I chat with Andrea Borgen Abdallah, owner of Barcito & Bodega in Downtown LA. We talk about the difference between service and hospitality, how the pivot becomes an evolution, the future of hospitality, and how her activism is at the heart of all of it.
