This is the Chefs Without Restaurants podcast. Each week we speak with food entrepreneurs, and let them tell their story. Our audio podcast is a more polished version, but for the YouTube version, we’re keeping it raw and unedited.
On this episode, we speak with Jacob Pratt. Jacob is a sales rep with International Gourmet Foods. Prior to working there, he’s spent most of his career working in, and running, kitchens.
We discuss the impact of Covid-19 on the restaurant industry including diminished sales, the supply chain, pivoting to the carry-out model, and restaurants turning into mini grocery stores. We also talk about work/life balance and being addicted to the restaurant lifestyle.
We asked Jacob to share some love for some of the restaurants still open, so check out The Tasting Room, Guide House Grill, Pistarros, Brewer’s Alley, Canapes Catering, Chrysalis Vineyards, Dolce & Ciabatta, Dan’s Restaurant & Tap House, Captain Bender’s Tavern, The Green Pineapple, Domestic, Fleur de Lis, & Cushwa Brewery.
