Our summer break continues as we knock out our housekeeping and get things ready for a busy fall. And before we get back to all new episodes we've got another great look back at a favorite with the great actor Jeffrey Wright. He digs into his role on WestWorld, his time in Hollywood and the roles he loves to take on, and he shares the story of Nearest Green and what has become not only an inspiration but is also a very successful enterprise. From Episode 55 - April 16, 2020: From Angels in America to Basquiat to Syriana to Casino Royale to The Hunger Games to Boardwalk Empire to Classical Baby to Westworld. Jeffrey Wright (@JFreeWright) has played Martin Luther King Jr. and Colin Powell. He's played artists and scientists. And he's everyone's favorite Host, Bernard Lowe. He's won a Golden Globe, an Emmy, a Tony. And he's a driven supporter of causes ranging from veterans with mental health injuries to miners in Sierra Leone.  It's a look back at one of the greats. At a time when none of us were at our best, he showed us what it means to be the best.

I have been hanging around the South Bay beaches since my youth. Maybe you caught my Instagram posts about how that happened. As a family, we spent much of our time in Hermosa Beach; I love the SoCal beach culture. There is an established group of restaurants under the moniker of Chef David Slay. He is a bit of an anomoly in that he has been a chef since his 20's (so well established in that sense), but at the same time, a rising star (usually an accolade for chefs just starting their career). Our conversation was fluid and full of insights. I have to say, sitting down with Chef David Slay for this episode of Wine Talks was a real eye-opener—and honestly, a relief in a business that's changing faster than most of us care to admit. We met up down in Hermosa Beach, a little outside my usual zone, which always seems to lend itself to looser conversation. There's no pretense with David; what you see is what you get, and that made for an episode full of straight talk. We kicked things off on common ground—hot yoga, of all things. You'd think two guys from the food and wine world would bond over Burgundy or beef carpaccio, but no, it's sweating it out in the same studio, talking about how houses and restaurants are being remodeled and how somehow, hot yoga becomes as much therapy as exercise. There's something grounding about that, and it set the tone for the rest of our conversation. What I appreciate about David is his clear-eyed view of the industry. He doesn't look at the shift in wine preferences or restaurant trends with nostalgia or bitterness. Instead, he recognizes that consumer tastes have changed, and he's made it a point to adjust right along with them. “I make wine for what the consumer wants, not for what my taste is,” he says—and you can tell he means it. That's rare. For some in the business, adapting is an insult to tradition. For David, it's just good sense. He describes older guests coming in with big Italians and Bordeauxs, while younger tables are ordering orange wine and lower-alcohol options. Rather than resist, he's leaned in, updating his own winemaking and keeping his wine lists relevant. David also spoke candidly about the business realities—shrinking wine lists, higher prices, and changing buying habits. The days of bragging about a 350-bottle inventory are gone; he's pared it down to 150 because that's what works now. What isn't moving gets cut, and what sells gets the spotlight. He's refreshingly honest about costs, average bottle prices, and even how certain cult wines just don't have the cachet with younger drinkers anymore. Running restaurants, building a wine brand, and surviving the post-COVID landscape takes more than passion. David's approach—focus on quality, pay your people right, and stay involved every day—seems to be the formula. I especially respect how he talks about his crew; he'd rather pay a dishwasher above the norm and keep staff long-term than deal with constant turnover. It's practical, but it's also the right thing to do. When we talked about food and wine, he's got the same data-driven but thoughtful outlook. He doesn't buy into the old dogma about pairings; instead, he sees the restaurant as a place where anything goes, as long as the customer has a good experience. Honestly, it was one of those episodes that reminded me what I like about this business—the moments where you drop the sales pitch and get real about what's working, what's not, and what it means to stay relevant without selling out. David Slay is exactly the kind of guest that keeps me hungry for the next conversation.

On today's episode of Startup to Storefront we're sitting down with Ayeshah Abuelhiga, the founder of Mason Dixie, the brand making comfort food clean and convenient. In 2014, she set out to prove that biscuits, breakfast sandwiches, and waffles could be crave-worthy without cheap ingredients or scary chemicals. As a first-generation American, Ayeshah grew up watching her immigrant parents serve quality comfort food at their small carry-out restaurant and convenience store. Years later, after leaving her big corporate job, she opened a restaurant of her own that had mile-long lines and sold out daily. Those same customers inspired her to package her biscuits, starting with nothing more than frozen dough, a vacuum sealer, and an ice chest. Today, Mason Dixie is on grocery shelves nationwide, still driven by the same mission: to make the food you crave with real ingredients you can feel good about. On this week's episode you'll learn: How strippers and nurses unexpectedly helped Mason Dixie decide to serve fried chicken earlier than planned. What it takes to win the People's Choice Award for Best Biscuit Snacks. How Mason Dixie scaled from restaurant to consumer, achieving 500% growth along the way. So butter that biscuit and indulge in the Mason Dixie story with Ayeshah Abuelhiga right now on Startup to Storefront.
