However, you've never likely met the founder Dave Raymond ...he doesn't sit down very often in front of a camera and we're grateful he agreed to sit down with us. Dave is an incredibly smart, successful and humble guy who shares a lot of great advice about business and life. We also get to hear from Duce Raymond, a trained chef, who provides more insight behind opening the restaurants and catering company.
