Here's a look back to episode 70, from February of 2016 and our conversation with Aaron Barnett.

****

We think you'll really enjoy this interview with St. Jack and La Moule's Christopher Aaron Barnett. You'll hear from his days as a boy cheering for Mark Messier with the Oilers, to his days as a cabana boy in Palm Springs to not doing much in college but being great at girls and drugs.  Somehow, he parlayed that into opening one of the country's best Lyonnaise restaurants without ever having been to Lyon.  He'll talk about how arrived at the Jewish grandmother approach to running a busy kitchen.  The hard way.
