Discovering Grayslake: Unveiling the Stories and People That Make Our Town Unique
Rudy Delatorre - Roost 83 & 59, owner of The Roost restaurants in Lake Villa and Grayslake. Rudy shares his journey from working at Mitch's in Grayslake to running his own family-involved business, discusses menu highlights like Italian beef and creative shakes, and reflects on the challenges of expansion and catering. The conversation covers community involvement, the importance of service, handling reviews, and balancing work with family. Lessons from The Roost: Building a Family Restaurant, Community Connections, and Customer Service Excellence In this episode of "Discovering Grayslake," host and local business advocate sits down with Rudy De La Torre—known to many as "Dicey"—the owner of The Roost, a beloved restaurant with locations in Lake Villa and Grayslake, Illinois. The conversation is a masterclass in what it takes to build a successful, community-focused restaurant business, and it's packed with actionable insights for anyone interested in entrepreneurship, hospitality, or simply supporting local gems. Below, we break down the main themes and expert advice from the episode, offering a comprehensive guide for listeners and readers who want to learn from Rudy's journey. Table of Contents The Power of Family in Business Service First: Why Customer Experience Matters Most Scaling Up: Challenges and Realities of Expansion Menu Development: Balancing Tradition and Creativity Catering and Food Trucks: Diversifying Revenue Streams Handling Reviews and Customer Feedback Community Involvement: The Heart of Local Business Work-Life Balance and Personal Growth Key Takeaways and Actionable Advice The Power of Family in Business Rudy's story is a testament to the unique strengths and challenges of running a family business. Insights from the Episode Family as a Workforce:** Rudy's sister, mother, and other relatives are integral to daily operations. Family members often go the extra mile, driven by a personal stake in the business's success. Pluses and Minuses:** While family brings dedication and trust, it can also blur boundaries. Rudy admits, “She's the only employee I've ever apologized to,” highlighting the need for humility and open communication. Generational Knowledge:** Rudy grew up in the restaurant world, learning from his parents and passing on that work ethic to his own family. Actionable Advice Set Clear Roles:** Even with family, define responsibilities and expectations to avoid misunderstandings. Communicate Openly:** Regular check-ins and honest feedback are essential—treat family with the same respect as any valued employee. Leverage Family Strengths:** Use the trust and commitment of family to build a strong, reliable core team. Service First: Why Customer Experience Matters Most Rudy's immediate question after the host's visit wasn't about the food—it was about the service. Insights from the Episode Service as a Differentiator:** In a crowded market, exceptional service sets you apart. Rudy's team is trained to prioritize customer satisfaction, especially during busy rushes. Empower Employees:** “Just fix the problem. Don't ask questions. Make the customer happy.” This philosophy empowers staff to resolve issues on the spot, reducing friction and building loyalty. Actionable Advice Train for Empathy:** Teach staff to listen, empathize, and act quickly to resolve concerns. Monitor Peak Times:** Anticipate rushes and staff accordingly to maintain service quality. Solicit Feedback:** Regularly ask customers about their experience and use their input to improve. Scaling Up: Challenges and Realities of Expansion Opening a second location is a major leap, and Rudy's experience offers a candid look at the process. Insights from the Episode From Employee to Owner:** Rudy transitioned from working at Mitch's to taking over a turnkey operation on Route 59, learning the ropes before making it his own. Staffing Struggles:** As the Grayslake location grew, finding committed employees became a challenge, requiring Rudy to be “boots on the ground” more often. Family as a Safety Net:** When hiring is tough, family members step in to keep operations running smoothly. Actionable Advice Start Small, Learn Fast:** Work in the business before owning it to understand the nuances. Prepare for Staffing Gaps:** Build a network of reliable part-timers or family who can step in as needed. Don't Rush Expansion:** Ensure your systems and team are ready before opening a new location. Menu Development: Balancing Tradition and Creativity The Roost's menu is a blend of classic comfort food and creative twists, all made from scratch. Insights from the Episode Signature Dishes:** Italian beef, roast pork, and the Rooster Chicken sandwich are standouts, with homemade sauces and customizable toppings. Quality Ingredients:** Everything is cooked, sliced, and prepared in-house, ensuring freshness and flavor. Creative Sides and Shakes:** Fried pickles, mushrooms, and inventive milkshakes keep the menu exciting and encourage repeat visits. Actionable Advice Focus on Quality:** Make as much as possible from scratch to control quality and stand out. Offer Customization:** Allow customers to personalize their meals for a better experience. Experiment Regularly:** Introduce new items or limited-time specials to keep the menu fresh. Catering and Food Trucks: Diversifying Revenue Streams Catering is a growing part of The Roost's business, and Rudy is considering a food truck to expand further. Insights from the Episode Catering Challenges:** Graduation parties are a big hit, but limited equipment and staffing can constrain growth. Food Truck Realities:** Permits, competition, and logistics make food trucks a significant investment, but they offer flexibility for events and catering. Actionable Advice Start with Core Offerings:** Focus on catering events that match your current capabilities. Research Regulations:** Understand local permit requirements before investing in a food truck. Use Events for Exposure:** Participate in local festivals and community events to build brand awareness. Handling Reviews and Customer Feedback Online reviews are a double-edged sword, but Rudy's approach is refreshingly pragmatic. Insights from the Episode Fix Problems Directly:** Rudy encourages customers to speak up in person so issues can be resolved immediately. Don't Obsess Over Reviews:** “A bad review doesn't define your business.” Focus on consistent quality and let word of mouth do the rest. Word of Mouth is King:** Personal recommendations from satisfied customers are more valuable than viral social media moments. Actionable Advice Respond Calmly:** Address negative reviews professionally, but don't let them consume you. Encourage Direct Feedback:** Make it easy for customers to share concerns privately. Build a Loyal Base:** Focus on creating memorable experiences that customers want to share. Community Involvement: The Heart of Local Business The Roost is deeply embedded in the Grayslake and Lake Villa communities, supporting events and building relationships. Insights from the Episode Event Participation:** Rudy's team caters school events, graduation parties, and would love to do more local festivals. Local Partnerships:** Word of mouth and referrals from other business owners (like Drake from Servpro) are crucial for growth. Visibility Challenges:** Even with a prime location, many locals may not know about The Roost—community engagement helps bridge that gap. Actionable Advice Sponsor Local Events:** Get involved in festivals, school functions, and charity events. Network with Other Businesses:** Build relationships with local entrepreneurs for mutual support and referrals. Stay Visible:** Use signage, social media, and community boards to remind locals you're there. Work-Life Balance and Personal Growth Rudy's commitment to health, family, and personal interests keeps him grounded and energized. Insights from the Episode Early Mornings:** Rudy hits the gym at 5 a.m. daily, setting a positive tone for the day. Family Time:** Supporting his daughter at LSU and traveling for family events are priorities. Personal Interests:** From attending concerts to Bears games, Rudy makes time for fun and relaxation. Actionable Advice Prioritize Self-Care:** Regular exercise and hobbies help prevent burnout. Celebrate Milestones:** Take time to enjoy family achievements and personal interests. Set Boundaries:** Even in a demanding business, carve out time for yourself and loved ones. Key Takeaways and Actionable Advice Rudy De La Torre's journey with The Roost offers a blueprint for building a resilient, community-focused restaurant. Top Lessons Family can be your greatest asset—if you communicate and set clear expectations.** Exceptional service is non-negotiable; empower your team to make things right.** Expand thoughtfully, ensuring your systems and staffing are ready for growth.** Keep your menu fresh and high-quality, balancing tradition with creativity.** Diversify revenue streams through catering and events, but know your limits.** Handle reviews with grace, focusing on direct feedback and word of mouth.** Engage deeply with your community to build lasting relationships and visibility.** Maintain work-life balance to sustain your passion and energy.** Final Thoughts Whether you're a
When the Rice Isn't the Issue: A Real Talk on Food Safety, Chef Pushback & Guest Trust This week, it's just me—no guest, just the truth. At a recent event, I was told by a chef that rice—specifically Uncle Ben's—was the reason a gluten-free option couldn't be provided. But we'd already discussed that on our prep call. I had asked for gluten-free rice. We agreed. And then… the night of the event? Nothing was gluten-free. His response? “Just put ‘Uncle Ben's' on the sign. Some gluten-free people are fine with it.” And when I asked what I could eat, he said, “We won't kill the meeting planner—we'll make you something else.” Spoiler alert: Uncle Ben's plain rice is gluten-free. So the issue wasn't the rice. It was the lack of follow-through. It was the dismissive attitude. It was the failure to respect the safety of every guest. In this episode, I'm diving into: • Why food safety requires transparency—not assumptions • How “good enough” is not good enough • The responsibility of hotels and planners to deliver on dietary promises If you've ever been gaslit about a dietary request—or told to “just eat something else”—pull up a chair. You're not alone. And this conversation needs to be had. See less

The National Transport Authority should provide clarity on its budgetary requirements and decision-making process regarding the re-instatement of catering services on all Irish Rail intercity routes. That's the call from Mark Duffy, Fine Gael Senator, spokesperson on Transport in the Seanad and Member of the Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport.
The National Transport Authority are being questioned on when they will reinstate catering services on all Irish Rail intercity routes. The service, which was suspended during the Covid-19 pandemic, has not yet been fully restored.Senator Mark Duffy has called for this service to be reinstated saying “Passengers travelling long distances across the country deserve basic amenities, and catering should not be regarded as a luxury and is seen as a standard service on rail across Europe.”We want to know, how has your experience with Irish rail been recently? Were you recently on a train where you didn't receive any food or drink?Joining Andrea to discuss is Chair of Galway Commuters Coalition, Lochlann Gallagher, Corporate Communications Manager with Irish Rail, Barry Kenny and listeners.

Levain Bakery, a New York City obsession among cookie lovers, started as a bread shop 30 years ago. The famous gooey and crispy 6-ounce cookies came about by accident.The founders, Connie McDonald and Pam Weekes, were triathletes as well as bakers, and they developed an oversized chocolate chip walnut cookie to fuel them during training. Word got out about that cookie and lines formed around the block. Now there are several more cookie variations and many more Levain locations, stretching from New York City to LA, Boston, metro D.C. and Chicago. Donna Magen joined the company about two and a half years ago as senior manager of specialty channels. She recently expanded Levain's catering arm, partnering with ezCater to reach cookie monsters in the workplace. Magen sees great potential in the burgeoning treat culture, where consumers are craving affordable indulgences—like cookies. But Levain is also going back to its roots, baking up breads, muffins, scones and the like to grow breakfast catering and other occasions. Listen as Magen talks about Levain's growth strategies beyond its retail shops into nontraditional channels and how the bakery is preserving its legacy as it grows.

This is what the podcast is all about. I had Tacos Cometa last night in Fremont and the food blew me away. I just had to get these guys in the studio to find out what they are about. Turns out there is a good reason they cook tacos like Michelin star chefs. It was also great meeting Kyle who was able to move from food truck to brick and mortar from the support of community.

In this episode, Tracy is joined by Chef Murray Hall, Chef Martha Morgan, and disability rights attorney Laurel Francoeur to discuss an issue that should no longer be happening—venues refusing to provide safe meals for guests with celiac disease. An event planner recently posted that the kitchen at her event venue “doesn't accommodate” celiac guests. Not a preference. Not a lifestyle. A medically necessary dietary need—and still being dismissed. She is asking the network of planners for suggestions to order about 10 celiac-friendly meals in a particular city. Chef Murray's take? “Crazy that this is still happening. Most places have shifted to this being the norm, not the exception.” We'll break down: ▶︎ Why “we don't do that” is an unacceptable—and sometimes unlawful—response ▶︎ How kitchens can safely serve gluten-free meals when they choose to ▶︎ What planners can say to push back and advocate for their attendees ▶︎ Why inclusive dining should be the baseline, not the exception If you've ever had to scramble to feed your guests safely—or felt like you were the only one fighting for what's right—this conversation is for you.

Nicholas Triolo is a writer, endurance athlete, and educator whose life and work sit at the crossroads of ecology, activism, and storytelling. For years, he's been exploring what happens when we stop charging toward the summit and start paying attention to the circuitous paths that wind around it. His new book, "The Way Around: A Field Guide to Going Nowhere," is the culmination of that exploration — a lyrical, wide-ranging meditation on movement, place, and the art of staying present. In the book, Nick traces a series of pilgrimages: circling a sacred mountain in Tibet, exploring a culturally significant northern California hiking tradition, and walking the rim of one of Montana's most infamous superfund sites. Each journey reveals something deeper — about endurance and restraint, about intimacy with landscapes and with ourselves, and about the courage to face environmental and cultural shadows without turning away. The book weaves together memoir, travel writing, and ecological inquiry, and in doing so, it asks us to reconsider how we measure meaning: not by miles logged or summits bagged, but by the depth of our attention and the generosity of our presence. In this conversation, Nick and I dig into the ideas behind the book — the practice of circumambulation, the pitfalls of “summit fever,” and the possibility of finding beauty even in places scarred by extraction. We also talk about the creative process: how to find your authentic voice in a world full of (good and bad) influences, how to write with both intimacy and respect, and how stories can become tools for resilience and re-enchantment. If you've ever sensed that the most interesting part of a long run, a wilderness trip, or a creative endeavor is what happens beneath the surface, this is a conversation for you. Nick has a gift for showing us how going “nowhere” can sometimes bring us closer to where we most need to be. Check out the episode notes for links to everything.

Death of the middle class: What is it: Anyone who has had to work to pay for rent, bills, food, etc. How to reestablish it: Corporate regulation, People over profit, Wage theft prosecution (no more deferred accountability loopholes), etc. (the upcoming series will contain specific examples)What's killing it: A system that prioritizes profits over people means: Catering to the wealthy and eliminating services + experiences for the middle class.Eliminating the working class from every direction. Culture, economics, sustainability, livelihoods, nothing is safe. Wage theft is the largest form of theft even if you take all of the other forms of theft that exist, combined. So they're stealing our money, benefiting from corporate bailout loopholes that they lobbied for, which means their own workers are paying taxes into the system that robs them of their own profits, and THEN Pricing us out with an increase in taxes, wage theft, and manufactured inflation.They've privatized or are in the process of fully privatizing everything: Prisons, Healthcare, Vet care, Wellness, Dialysis, Education, Housing, Politics, and the land itself… literally everything that should be in the best interest of the public and the world at large has been bought and sold to the highest bidder. But it is not hopeless. What is manufactured can be restructured. We can fight back, if we're strategic and conscious of the ways in which they're attacking us. This is psychological warfare, only when we recognize this, can we begin to push back + defend ourselves against these attacks.
