In this episode of A Table in the Corner, Russel sits down with Tasha Sideris, founder and chief executive of the Tashas restaurant group, to unpack two decades of building one of the most recognisable hospitality brands to emerge from South Africa. The conversation traces Tasha's route into restaurants through family, osmosis and necessity rather than formal training, and how early years on the floor shaped a leadership style rooted in presence, pace and accountability.Tasha speaks candidly about scaling across continents without losing quality, the constant work of sourcing ingredients market by market, and why no two Tashas restaurants are ever identical. We talk about comfort as a design principle, classics as an anchor, and the discipline required to keep food, service and atmosphere aligned at volume. She reflects on rolling up her sleeves during service, leading from inside the business, and why people - not concepts - determine whether restaurants succeed or fail.The discussion also explores growth beyond the flagship brand, from Café Sophie and Arlecchino to mentoring younger operators, building teams across regions and investing in training as a long-term strategy. This is a clear-eyed, practical conversation about consistency, scale and care, told by an operator who understands that hospitality is sustained not by ideas alone, but by the people trusted to execute them every day.Get a fair price with HeadsUpEvery booking is a first impression.

It does seem ironic even that an act of God or natural disaster can eviscerate a region so completely but eventually bring a community together. We have seen that over and over again since the devastation of the hurricanes in September. Such times also build leaders. We hear about the rebuilding effort from Duke Energy's newly named President, Harry Sedaris.

If you weren't here last Sunday, we kicked off our new sermon series, "Atmosphere Matters," which is a deep dive into the Sideris 14 principles. Why focus on this now? Well, now more than ever, it's crucial to remind ourselves who exactly God has called us to BE as a community testifying to his goodness and grace in the city and we think the 14 principles do just that! What atmosphere grips a people centered on the gospel of Jesus Christ and how do we cultivate and guard that atmosphere in and out of every season? * CONNECT CARD -- https://siderischurch.com/connectcard * MAKE A BIG DECISION -- https://siderischurch.com/baptism * GOSPEL RESOURCES -- https://siderischurch.com/resources

Tashas, a beloved brand in South Africa, grew from a single restaurant in Atholl, established with money from a loan shark, to 15 locations across the country. In 2019, Natasha Sideris and her brother Savva bought back Tashas from Famous Brands, establishing Tashas Group. This international hospitality company would soon have 10 brands under its umbrella, including the Flamingo Room by Tashas, Avli by Tashas, Bungalo34, and the World's Top Galaxy Bar. The group first expanded overseas to the Middle East, establishing a presence in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Saudi Arabia. Now, they are venturing into the London market with a Tashas opening at Battersea Park Power Station at the end of November 2023. In an interview with Biznews, Sideris shared her apprehensions about opening a restaurant in the competitive London market. They plan to bring their first restaurant, Atholl Square to London with its South African flavours and interior design. Like other South Africans who have come to London, one of the biggest challenges is staffing. However, Sideris is adapting to a younger generation with different expectations. She also discussed her decision to part ways with Famous Brands in 2019, how South African staff form the backbone of her overseas teams, and her plans to expand into every major world city and launch a homeware collection.
Hashem catches up with Natasha Sideris after a two-year scheduling ping-pong. He instantly bonds with the iconic restaurateur and founder of Tashas, Avli, and Flamingo Room, over their quest for work-life balance and sustaining a timeless brand with menu classics and sleek interior design. Natasha shares her most cherished metrics for success and what keeps her motivated despite a career spanning over three decades. They also discuss her plans for expansion in Saudi Arabia and the UK, the biggest threats to a restaurant's growth, and why she will invariably decline a Hellenic expansion.

At first glance, historic preservation seems to be a key part of good urban planning. But whom does historic preservation actually serve? In this week's episode, our guests discuss their recent LCHP report that analyzes the power dynamics behind historic preservation. They look at the way in which historic preservation norms have been applied as an instrument of cultural control in three Southern California communities with large Asian-American populations. At the end of the day, they pose the question of whether historic preservation should be seen as an instrument of good planning or a form of cultural imperialism?Anastasia Loukaitou-Sideris is a Distinguished Professor of planning and urban design at UCLA.

1 Corinthians 15:35-50 || More than the months it took for our series to finally get to this passage in 1 Corinthians 15, you could say that it took 15 years in the making for Dave! This is "THE" passage that confirmed the calling of our lead pastor David Evanger in 2007 which began the journey of being called to the mission field of sharing the gospel with young working adults and inviting them to "Consider Jesus". It's what led him to start the "Consider Concerts" and to eventually plant a church in the heart of Seattle called "Sideris" which is the Latin root of the word "consider" but can also be translated to 'heavenly body". Poetically, Sideris appeals to our eternal state as Christians and also points to the church as the body of Christ which is what we aim to do as a church with every message, song, and conversation.

Like any good trilogy franchise, the Easter Story really has three parts: The Cross, The Resurrection, and The Ascension. The true story of Jesus has to include all three parts to make sense and to save us. So at Sideris, we take three weeks each year to unpack each of the 3 parts of the story surrounding Easter. This week is all about The Ascension. What does it mean that Jesus ascended? What does that matter where Jesus is now and what he is doing? Why is this part of Jesus' story often forgotten or overseen?

Without the knowledge of The Resurrection, what part if living now will we miss out on?
It's Resurrection Sunday! Like any good trilogy franchise, the Easter Story really has three parts: The Cross, The Resurrection, and The Ascension. The true story of Jesus has to include all three parts to make sense and to save us. So at Sideris we take three weeks each year to unpack each of the 3 parts of the story surrounding Easter. This week is all about The Resurrection. What does the Resurrection mean? Why does it change not only Jesus but all of us? Without the knowledge of The Resurrection, what part if living now will we miss out on?

The true story of Jesus has to include all three parts to make sense and to save us. So at Sideris, we take three weeks each year to unpack each of the 3 parts of the story. This week we lean into the Power of the Cross! We take a look at the events surrounding the moments leading up to Christ's crucifixion. Putting ourselves in the shoes of the crowds that welcomed Jesus into Jerusalem with shouts of joy and proclamations of his kingship to then band together to chant and march for his crucifixion just a few days later. It's our goal over the course of these next 3 Sundays to de-familiarize you with the subjects of the cross, resurrection, and ascension so that you might discover new ways of considering them that lead to abundant joy.
