We're LIVE from Washington DC! Cava is quietly crushing it while every other fast casual chain struggles. Revenue jumped 21%, profit margins are nearly double Sweetgreen's, and now Cava has launched a secret invite-only loyalty tier called "Oasis" — no press release, no ads, just confused Reddit screenshots. We explain why hummus bowls are more profitable than salad bowls, and how keeping the finish line a mystery might be the smartest loyalty play in restaurants. Fitting that we're covering DC's homegrown fast casual king live from the nation's capital.
