222: Santorini Secrets: Mediterranean Living at MIA'S Kiki goes on location to Greece to experience the Mediterranean Diet — Santorini style. Today's Lexi:  Μεζέ – Meze – Appetizers In Today's Episode: Join Kiki and Sellia, owner of Mia's Restaurant on the island of Santorini in Greece. Today you will love an authentic and vibrant conversation about the Mediterranean food that is prepared and crafted by an all-woman kitchen spearheaded by chef Ellie.  What is fava, and how versatile is it? What is the secret to Mia's village salad, and how did Sellia get to Santorini in the first place?  There's so much more to this conversation, so please tune in. Resources: Mia's Restaurant Cupitol Coffee Cupitol — The Restaurant About Sellia Sellia Georges is a third-generation restaurateur whose family has been part of Chicago's restaurant industry for more than 40 years. Growing up, she worked in her family's restaurants — JC Georges (opened in 1982), OPA Estiatorio, Portofino Italian, and Elly's Brunch Café — and later worked alongside her father on the opening of the Elly's 24-Hour concept in downtown Chicago in 2010.   Sellia considers Cupitol to be the evolution of Elly's, bringing together an easy-going European atmosphere with an all-day dining experience. She opened the first Cupitol Coffee & Eatery location in Evanston in 2016, followed by a second location in Chicago's Streeterville neighborhood in 2017, and a third location featuring an expanded bakery in West Loop in 2021. Her vision was to create a versatile space where guests could enjoy breakfast or coffee with friends, a full meal, work at a communal table or lounge, or simply grab a cold-pressed juice to go. Her Greek heritage is reflected throughout Cupitol, from the relaxed lounge atmosphere to the menu, which features house-made pastries, specialty roasted coffee, and creative cocktails.   Sellia's next concept brought her back to her roots with the opening of MIA'S Restaurant in Oia, Santorini, where her ancestors were born. Conceived during the pandemic, MIA'S has since become one of the most beloved restaurants in Oia, offering comforting yet elevated Greek cuisine through a modern, seasonal lens.   Most recently, in December 2024, she launched Cupitol The Restaurant, an expanded evolution of the Cupitol concept and the brand's fourth location. Her goal was to create an accessible all-day restaurant serving delicious, high-quality food and drinks for breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner at approachable prices. In addition to the signature Cupitol offerings, the restaurant features a specially curated dinner menu designed exclusively for this concept.   Alongside her extensive hospitality experience, Sellia holds a bachelor's degree in Sociology from Kingston University and a master's degree in Psychology from University of Essex.

Data shows that chain restaurants grew by 3% last year, while smaller independent restaurants declined by more than 2% as they struggled to navigate rising prices for real estate, food, insurance, and labor. When all restaurants are basically the same city to city, what does it mean for the unique flavor of a place? But first, Iran has ratcheted up its attacks on Gulf countries and in the Strait of Hormuz.

Retail Advisory Retail vacancy rates: up? down? Where have they headed recently in your new report? What are the economic pressures leading to this? what types of retail businesses are thriving, and what's driving this resilience? We had seen significant growth in build-to-suit developments. How are developers and retailers working together to create spaces that meet evolving consumer demands? Eateries open and close as the market evolves, how do you foresee the balance between new openings and vacancies playing out in the next year? » Visit MBN website: www.michiganbusinessnetwork.com/ » Subscribe to MBN's YouTube: www.youtube.com/@MichiganbusinessnetworkMBN » Like MBN: www.facebook.com/mibiznetwork » Follow MBN: twitter.com/MIBizNetwork/ » MBN Instagram: www.instagram.com/mibiznetwork/ The highly anticipated “Market Insights” report from Martin Commercial Properties provides an in-depth analysis of the region's retail, industrial, and office real estate sectors. EAST LANSING, Mich. – Martin Commercial Properties has released its 2025 H1 Market Insights Report for the Greater Lansing Area, offering an in-depth analysis of commercial real estate conditions across the industrial, office, and retail sectors. The report points to increasing market stability and positive momentum, even as many industries continue to navigate broader economic uncertainty. MBN: MCP Van Martin “While the economic landscape remains mixed, commercial real estate in Greater Lansing is demonstrating resilience and steady forward progress,” said Van W. Martin, CCIM, SIOR, CRE, President and CEO of Martin Commercial Properties (left). “Across all three sectors, we're seeing fundamentals that suggest the market is adjusting thoughtfully rather than pulling back.” According to the report, the industrial sector continues to be supported by historically high rental rates, limited availability of modern facilities, and sustained investment tied to manufacturing, logistics, and energy-related users. Demand for well-located, functional industrial space remains strong, underscoring the region's competitiveness and long-term growth potential. The office market is showing early signs of stabilization as obsolete inventory is removed, sublease space declines, and tenants increasingly prioritize high-quality, well-located buildings. While challenges remain, particularly in older properties, leasing activity and owner-occupier interest are helping rebalance the market. Retail performance remains strongest in established corridors, where consistent leasing activity, redevelopment of formerly vacant spaces, and targeted new construction continue to reinforce neighborhood and necessity-based retail demand. Prime locations are outperforming the broader market, reflecting disciplined expansion by retailers and continued consumer engagement. MBN: MCP GL “Greater Lansing's commercial real estate market is evolving in a measured and responsible way,” Martin added. “The data shows continued confidence in quality assets, strategic reinvestment, and a foundation that supports long-term economic health across the region.” About Martin Commercial Properties: Martin Commercial Properties is one of Michigan's leading independent commercial real estate firms, with a legacy spanning over 60 years. Renowned for its unparalleled expertise, influence, and client-centric approach, Martin Commercial Properties offers a complete range of commercial real estate services, including brokerage, property development, property management, investment services, and corporate solutions.

On this episode, presented by Busey Bank, I'm sitting down Julie Shih, the visionary behind DD Mau Vietnamese Eatery. Julie opened her first location in 2018 with a mission to deliver fresh, healthy, and flavorful Vietnamese cuisine in a fast-casual setting. Eight years later, she's making bold moves—relocating her Webster Groves restaurant into a stunning 6,000-square-foot space that she and her husband purchased and completely renovated.   This isn't just a bigger kitchen and more seating—it's a statement about growth, ownership, and long-term vision. In this episode, we'll dive into what it takes to make a seven-figure investment in your brand, how Julie balances risk and opportunity, and what this expansion means for the future of DD Mau. We'll also explore her approach to scaling without losing the soul of her concept and the lessons she's learned as a leader in the competitive restaurant industry.   I'm also excited to welcome a new partner for the show - The Normal Brand - clothing rooted in Midwestern values. Co-founder Jimmy Sansone joined me awhile back (episode #67) and I'm a big supporter. They're giving listeners 15% off one purchase of regularly priced clothing.

Brianna shares how Snooze's early days of volunteering at the Denver Rescue Mission set the tone for a company-wide approach that now includes programs like the Changemaker initiative and long-term partnerships with organizations such as Urban Peak. She also reflects on her own leadership development through board service, youth mentorship, and global volunteer experiences that have deepened her sense of personal satisfaction and purpose.   Listeners can learn more about supporting youth experiencing homelessness through Urban Peak's Urban Nights Kicks & Culture Sneaker Ball at urbanpeak.org/urban-nights. Brianna also recommends Tommy Spaulding's books, The Heart-Led Leader and The Gift of Influence, which have shaped her vision of philanthropy and leadership. Her story and these resources show how integrating service into business not only builds stronger communities but also creates deeper fulfillment for leaders and their teams.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Philanthropy and Service as a Business Value 02:03 Brianna Borin's Journey with Snooze A.M.

Jeffrey Epstein was a regular patron at 75 Main, an upscale restaurant in Southampton, New York. The restaurant's owner, Zach Erdem, later publicly addressed that association by dramatically destroying the very table Epstein—and Harvey Weinstein—frequently occupied. Erdem used an ax and sledgehammer to break the table and then set it ablaze, in a symbolic gesture meant to erase the “bad energy” the disgraced figures left behind. The spectacle drew cheers from staff and patrons.This symbolic act was not just performative but a deliberate statement: “People who abuse women are not welcome here,” Erdem declared, effectively drawing a line between his establishment and the abusers it once hosted. The flaming table became both a literal and figurative cleansing—an attempt to reclaim the space from the stain of Epstein's presence.To contact me:Bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.icij.org/investigations/paradise-papers/jeffrey-epsteins-offshore-fortune-traced-to-paradise-papers/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
