Hi friends! I had the pleasure of speaking with my friend, Chef Sameh Wadi, the guy who owns World Street Kitchen and Milkjam Creamery.

Our conversation was chocked full of hilarious moments and, yes, even a few serious ones. We talked about the Twin Cities restaurant scene (and how lucky we are to have it), lifting, mispronouncing each others' names, our moms, Palestinian weddings, and Sameh's OnlyFans account.

Check out Sameh's spots! (and if you're listening to this, you probably have)

Welcome to Niver Niver Land: A podcast that addresses massive change in the restaurant industry (sometimes).

The show is hosted by award-winning restaurateur Tim Niver – a local legend of Minnesotas' Twin Cities – known for his involvement with fabled spots like Aquavit, Town Talk Diner, and Strip Club Meat & Fish. These days, he runs Saint Dinette and Mucci's Italian in St. Paul and Minneapolis.

Anyways, back to the whole "massive change in the hospitality industry" thing.

We see a major problem here: no one is having real conversations about what's going on. Many of those who work in the industry are still trying to wrap their heads around what’s happening – and so is Tim.

Today, he’s ready to talk about these things – through his trademark wit and foolishness – so that we can better appreciate and preserve the cultural importance of restaurants.
