The Banter

The Guys talk about an unfortunate situation where Francis suffered.

The Conversation

The Restaurant Guys have filmmakers Max Well and Alex Lamb on to discuss their documentary The Donn of Tiki about Don the Beachcomber’s life. The story includes rum-running, globe-trotting, the Mafia and amazingly creative marketing that started a movement. 

The Inside Track

The Guys were able to interview Alex and Max right before The Guys hopped on a train to NYC for a tiki party with Jeff “Beachbum” Berry  (who appeared in the film). 

Alex succinctly describes how the stars aligned so Don the Beachcomber could work his magic.

“ He had run rum with his brother, so he had an in with the rum industry and knew how to sell rum to a generation of people who really weren't that interested in drinking rum until he created these cocktails. Also he had collected all these things on his travels that he was using as props in films in the 1930s. So he just kind of threw a bunch of stuff on the wall and the tiki bar was born!” Alex Lamb & Max Well on The Restaurant Guys Podcast 2025

Bio

Since 2007, co-directors Alex Lamb and Max Well have been producing music videos, documentaries, children's shows, commercials, and branded content. Last year, after a deep dive into the history of Tiki bars, they decided to tell the story of the incredible life of Donn Beach.

The Banter

The Guys talk about a big change in NYC restaurant ownership as well as the implications of invasive grass.

The Conversation

The Restaurant Guys welcome William Alexander to hear about the trials of being a home gardener and the shocking realization that his home-grown tomatoes cost him $64. 

The Inside Track

The Guys have an amusing conversation with Bill discussing the battles with deer, groundhogs and the neighbor’s cat.

Bill: My latest battle was with the neighbor's cats who insisted on peeing on my organic lettuce. 

Mark:  That's still organic. 

Bill: Well, you know, I think I found a way to get, get even with them. I started to use their litter box. But I think the moral is that no matter what you do, animals are going to get into your garden because of the simple truth: You may be smarter, but they've got more time. 

-William Alexander on The Restaurant Guys Podcast 2006

Bio

William Alexander, spent nearly four decades as director of technology at a psychiatric research institute.

Having broken into writing with the critically-acclaimed, bestselling memoir The $64 Tomato, Bill wrote Ten Tomatoes that Changed the World. 

Bill has contributed over a dozen op-eds to the New York Times, where he has opined on such varied issues as Martha Stewart's release from prison, what the honeybee crisis means to the home gardener, the difficulties of being organic, and The Benefits of Failing at French, which achieved the distinction of being the most viewed, e-mailed, tweeted, and Facebook-ed article of the day.

The Banter

The Conversation

The Inside Track

The Guys find a soulmate in Antonia Lofaso. All of them value hard work and loyalty that they have been fortunate enough to find in their staff. 

“So many great chefs that have worked with me have started as dishwashers, busboys line cooks, prep guys have all come up through the ranks and now run the restaurants.

That's the way all the restaurants have been built. The loyalty of them staying with me and wanting to produce great food day after day, started with a culture that I built in the restaurants,” Antonia Lofaso on The Restaurant Guys 2025

This is a Vintage Selection from 2006

The Banter

The Guys talk about premium products and how much is too much to pay. From wild salmon to select chocolate, everyone has their spending limit…and The Guys wish theirs was a little higher. 

The Conversation

The Restaurant Guys meet Farmer John Peterson to hear about the documentary The Real Dirt on Farmer John. John shares his story of suffering financial and emotional hardship to creating Angel Organics, one of the largest Community Supported Agriculture farms in the US.

The Inside Track

The Guys were eager to talk to John after seeing the documentary. John equates modern farms turning organic to people finding sobriety.

“When it's going from a chemical based system to a natural system, it has to be repopulated by the microorganisms. Maybe it's a little like someone going into an addiction clinic and then going from a dependent life to a healthy life. We were raising very unhealthy crops that the insects were invading. It took a long time to figure out how to build things up and how to get the soil healthy,” Farmer John Peterson on The Restaurant Guys 2006

Bio

John Peterson was raised on his family’s farm in Illinois. The financial calamity for the farming community hit the Peterson farm in the 1980s nearly closing the farm for good. John decided to rebuild using sustainable farming practices rather than the modern chemical-reliant approach. In 1991, Angel Organics was born. They opted for a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) model which continued until spring of 2025. Unfortunately, farming halted due to Farmer John having a stroke.

The is a Vintage Selection from 2005

The Banter

The Guys talk about urban and suburban grape and olive growing and why they CAN Believe It’s Not Butter.

The Conversation

The Restaurant Guys talk with Ted Hall about terrior, and hidden olive orchards and consecrated olive oil. Ted tells how organic, sustainable practices yield the highest quality products and the happiest farmers.

The Inside Track

The Guys discuss the symbiosis of wine and food and Ted shares feedback he’s gotten from chefs pairing his wine with their dishes.

Ted: What you're creating is wine that really is part of the food. There are so many of these wines, which are basically a bottle of some guy's ego. Why do I want this other guy's bottled ego on the table?

Francis: I don't. Usually I'm sitting across from Mark who's got his own ego sitting in the chair across from me. Why would I need a bottle of wine?

Mark: It's not in a bottle. It's out there!

Bio

In 1989 Ted Hall co-founded Long Meadow Ranch, an innovative group of family-owned companies producing grapes and ultra-premium wine, olives and extra virgin olive oil, grass-fed beef and lamb, and fruits and vegetables, using diversified, organic, and sustainable farming methods.

Ted is the recipient of the 2017 Grower of the Year Award from the Napa Valley Grapegrowers and the 2013 Acre by Acre Award from the Land Trust of Napa Valley. In 2015 Ted served as chair of the Agricultural Protection Advisory Committee (APAC).

The Banter

The Guys enjoy a snack and Mark tells the secret of what makes it great!

The Conversation

The Restaurant Guys are on location in Charleston, SC at Herd Provisions with owner Alec Bradford and wine director Kellie Holmes. Alec tells how he began cattle farming and grew to running a restaurant. Kellie shares how she selects wine to match the farm-to-table story of Herd Provisions and trains the staff to reflect that story.

The Inside Track

The Guys found the concept of having a restaurant and a wine shop familiar, but Herd’s butcher shop and cattle farming takes it even further! When you are invested in a project, it’s incredibly personal.

“ I take it very personally, but it is incredibly gratifying. The best day I ever had was the first time I sold a steak at a New York restaurant (to Eric Ripert of Le Bernardin). He does a great food and of course, Eric is not well known for cooking steaks, but he took three ounces of tenderloin and some caviar, and he called it surf and turf.  I think I did a backflip in my mind for sure. That was, that was one of the best days of my life,” Alec Bradford on The Restaurant Guys Podcast 2025

Bios

Alec Bradford is the owner of Herd Provisions in Charleston, South Carolina, a farm-to-table restaurant and whole-animal butcher shop. Herd’s high quality meats are sourced directly from Alec’s very own Leaping Waters Farm in Virginia. Since 2004, Alec raises one of the oldest and rarest breeds – Ancient White Park cattle. 

______________

Kellie Holmes is a restaurant consultant who focuses on the creation and implementation of wine programs in the Southeast and beyond. As Herd Provisions’ Wine & Events Director, she runs the wine program for the dining room and retail shop including a wine club and tasting events. She focuses on sustainably produced, small production and minimal intervention wines.

This is a BONUS! episode relating to the Belmont Stakes 2025

The ConversationThe Restaurant Guys sit down with King Cocktail Dale DeGroff and Peter Thomas Fornatale of In the Money Players’ Podcast to talk about horse racing and the cocktails that accompany it. Pete offers his Win, Place and Show for the upcoming Belmont Stakes 2025. Listen and you could wind up in the money.

The Inside Track The Guys are horse racing fans and hosted Dale for his performance of “Gamblers, Whisky and Flying Horses.” They recently met Pete and plan to catch up with him at the track in Saratoga this summer. They all have had fun times with Dale including one night when Dale had to give the bartenders at a new NYC hotspot a cocktail recipe.

 Pete: You're writing out the recipe on the back of a napkin to send to the bartenders to go and make us around. To this day still, it was the most baller move I've ever seen to be in the hot new restaurant writing out the recipe. This is what we'd like to drink, thank you very much.

Francis: I wanna make a public service announcement to all dining customers. If you are not Dale Degroff, don't do that. 

Dale: And by the way, this explains why nobody knows where these famous drinks came from with a few minor exceptions because they wrote 'em down on a cocktail napkin and stuck them in their pocket. Later on in the evening they pulled it out, blew their nose on it and threw it away.

The Conversation

The Restaurant Guys talk with John Scharffenberger about his premium line of chocolate which is the first “bean to bar” chocolate made in the United States. John talks about the history, sourcing and the crucial details in creating some of the finest chocolate in the world!

The Inside Track

The Guys were fans of John’s sparkling wine and are fans of his chocolate. This is how John describes his on-the-job training after his career shift. 

“ I think we were just stupid when we started and the only way we knew how to do things were the way I had done things in the wine business [which] was just to be really careful about flavor. So we treated the beans like we used to treat grapes. We did blind tastings, we did lots of blind tastings, and only accepted beans that had flavors that we liked,” John Scharffenberger on The Restaurant Guys Podcast 2007

Bio

John Scharffenberger started Scharffenberger Cellars known for their world-class California sparkling wine. He left the winery and started Scharffen Berger Chocolates in 1997 with Robert Steinberg.
