This week on the Extra Serving podcast, a product of Nation's Restaurant News, NRN editors Holly Petre, Sam Oches, and Leigh Anne Zinsmeister continued to speak about this quarter's earnings.Since the editors last gathered for the pod, several companies have reported, including Bloomin' Brands, El Pollo Loco, and Texas Roadhouse.The editors mentioned Texas Roadhouse last week, anticipating the brand's positive returns, and that's exactly what was reported. The chain saw 4% traffic growth, slightly less than at Chipotle, and same-store sales growth of almost 8% across the system.Much like KFC, Wendy's is looking to its international market for help during this rough financial time.Meanwhile, Shake Shack and El Pollo Loco are investing heavily in kiosks and seeing returns.And much like the editors talked about last week, speed of service is key for many brands, and that includes family-dining chains. First Watch is now investing in technology to speed up service time for customers.This week, there are three interviews from the Restaurant Leadership Conference, with executives from Dave's Hot Chicken, Newk's Eatery, and Union Square Hospitality Group.

he Fast Casual Nation Podcast offers exclusive interviews with experts ranging from top chefs and brand makers to executives and restaurants who work in one of the fastest-growing segments of the restaurant industry. In this episode I talk with Josh Luger, co-founder of Capital Tacos about key strategies for successfully expanding your restaurant. Capital Tacos founded in 2013 is a fast-casual Tex-Mex chain of restaurants Based in Tampa, Florida, known for their scratch-made kitchen and a menu crafted by chefs. Luger talks about the first location that opened in Land O' Lakes Florida and says, “there was no money to put up a sign, so there was no sign for a few years there and the focus was just delivering the best Tex-Mex we could out there, flavorful and inventive, trying a new take on what a fast-casual Tex-Mex concept could be.” Luger shares that Capital Tacos recently expanded, opening their first store in Orlando and 2023 expansion plans include new markets South Florida, Atlanta, Charlotte and Colorado. As the Capital Tacos team is planning for growth, Luger offers several strategic expansion strategies to ensure success and profitability. He talks about product offering saying, “I think to even start one restaurant, let alone think about scaling it across a market or multiple markets, you really have to look inward and think, what is truly different and differentiated about our product offering, what do we have to say? And so, for us, there's a few core things that really start offering that we think make us distinct and unique in the Tex-Mex landscape and we're confident as we expand across Tampa and across new markets that folks will find us interesting and want to give us a try and hopefully come back.”The Capital Tacos co-founder takes a deep dive into several layers of the business that are key to successful expansion in regards to their roadmap for success. Luger's insights include:Truly Differentiated Product OfferingA Brand That Stands For Something Beyond The FoodA Capital Efficient And Flexible Development StrategyDiversified Revenue StreamsKeep On InnovatingA Focus On Truly Great OperatorsReward loyalty, provide value, and have fun!To hear detailed steps to a successful expansion roadmap, Luger's top 3 tips for creating a new menu special check out this episode of Fast Casual Nation or tune in on Apple Podcasts.

The 755 duo confabulate about Newk's time as a starter and his transition to the bullpen. What did Snit have to say about his performance? Should he close games more often?

This show continues our series connecting the Duty to Remember and the Ethics of Memory to the issue of Prisoners of War/Missing in Action (POW/MIA). We begin this show with a photo of Wilmer Newlin “Newk” Grubb, an American Pilot who was shot down in North Vietnam in 1966 and died shortly after becoming a POW. Clearly alive in the photo (taken in 1966), and being tended to by a nurse, the photo was promoted by the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (DRV), and published in U.S. papers. Eventually, Newk's wife Evelyn learned of the photo, who until that time, was uncertain of his fate. Upon seeing the photo, Evelyn's life – and that of her 4 sons – was changed forever. Learn about this powerful story as Kevyn Settle, director and producer of a relevant documentary film called “Fruits of Peace”, and Jeff Grubb, the eldest one son of Newk and Evelyn Grubb, discuss the events surrounding the photo both in Vietnam and in the United States.

This show continues our series devoted connecting the Duty to Remember and the Ethics of Memory to the issue of Prisoners of War/Missing in Action (POW/MIA). Joining us is the talented team behind "Fruits of Peace" a 2019 documentary film that focuses on the reconciliatory journey of Du Pham, a Vietnamese National, who fought for the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (North Vietnam) during the Vietnam War. Du belongs to the celebrated anti-aircraft unit "C4" which, as its first victory, shot down American Pilot Wilmer Newlin "Newk" Grubb in 1966. Surviving the attack on his plane, Newk was taken to a local village and fed, and then presumably transported to a camp holding other Prisoners of War. Newk died in captivity shortly thereafter. Du just assumed that Newk had survived and was released when the other Prisoners of War were returned to the United States during Operation Homecoming in 1973. Over 40 years later, in 2010, Du journeyed to the U.S. in part to visit his brother Mai (who fought for the South) and to find Newk. Join us to learn about the incredible unfolding of events triggered by Du's courageous decision to extend his hand to his former "enemy", as told in "Fruits of Peace." Joining us are Kevyn Settle (Producer, Director), Michael Chiplock (Executive Producer) and Shirine Hossaini (Associate Producer) of this moving film that raises profound and poignant questions about the Duty to Remember, the Ethics of Memory and how journeys of reconciliation help to harvest the fruits of peace.

This is a conversation with Jason Morgan. He is the CEO of bellagreen and Original Chopshop and a board member for Newk’s Eatery. He joined the restaurant industry in 2008 when he became the CFO of Zoe’s Kitchen when the brand had only 20 units, then helped lead it all the way to IPO. This episode was recorded at the Restaurant Leadership Conference last April. Enjoy!
Lunch and Conversation at Newk’s Eatery, Montgomery, Alabama Featuring Special Guest: Dewayne Rembert I first heard today’s podcast guest speak at a special event earlier this year. It wasn’t so much what he said that caught my attention as much as who he is and who God called him to be. God called Dewayne Rembert to flatline; then he called Dewayne to Ngauge everyone he encounters to flatine. As God spoke to Dewayne right out of Romans 6:11, “You have to die before you die, so you could live. I want you to start Flat Line.” The Flatline Movement is making an impact in Montgomery, Alabama and across the nation. Dewayne’s specific mission is to reach fatherless boys. His broader mission is to remind us all of God’s grand invitation – “Count yourselves dead to sin, but alive to God through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Dewayne and I sat down to some mighty fine salads at Newk’s Eatery to talk about flatlining. You're invited to plant yourself on the (operating) table and join us for a conversation that could jolt you back to life.

Today we visit John Newcott, composer and singer. Goes by the stage name NewK. Like many, I first knew him as a Marketing guy for Universal and Verve Forecast back in the 90s, but as happens with all first impressions I later had to seriously expand the slot I’d originally allocated to him in my mind. The guy has a long history as a musician and composer as well as a deep love of the art which now, at long last, takes center stage in his life. NewK has been around the block and back, and in this episode of Play It Like It’s Music we get to hear some of his stories as well as some great music.

Lionel Richie got nothing on Sonny Rollins - as we learn from Newk's 15 minutes solos on the incredible (and sometimes exhausting) Complete Village Gate release, he sure can keep it going all night long. Branford M. solo and Dexter Gordon chip in to provide context and Pat rants about the movie Sing. Branford Marsalis – IN MY SOLITUDE; Dexter Gordon – BOTH SIDES OF MIDNIGHT; Sonny Rollins – COMPLETE LIVE AT THE VILLAGE GATE 1962
Today is is the 85th Birthday of Sonny Rollins, who was born in New York City on September 7,1930. Sonny of course is one of the major figures in the development of post-war Jazz music and without a doubt one of the most important saxophonists in Jazz history. His story is very evident in books and the internet and some wonderful interviews can be seen on iTunes that were conducted by Bret Primack and ALL of them are worth seeing. Tpnight's Jazz feature is one of Sonny's very best and it's called "Newk's Time" "Newk is one of Sonny's nicknames as he resembled the famous baseball player Don Newcomb. It was done on a day when Sonny didn't feel intimidated by the recording studio as he never liked recording in the studio. He picked some of his favourite musicians to do this informal date. They had to be the best as there were no plans and no rehearsals until the studio. Everything went down in first takes, save for some false starts. The players Sonny used were pianist Wynton Kelly, bassist Doug Watkins and drum great Philly Joe Jones.The tunes were a few lesser played standards, one by Miles Davis and one by trumpeter and pal Kenny Dorham and one great blues by Sonny called "Blues for Philly Joe". Only 34 plus minutes but one great recording finished in about 1 and 1/2 hours! Happy Birthday Mr. Rollins.
