Hey there food fans! Welcome back to The Food For ThoughtCast- it's time for Episode 164 with my special guest, Michele DiMeo. Michele, aka “The Restaurant Diva,” is a restaurant executive, entrepreneur, franchise leader, speaker, and host of the syndicated Dine & Dish Podcast. With more than 30 years in the restaurant and hospitality industry, Michele serves as COO and co-founder of MONTE Restaurant Development Group and President of Squisito Franchise Enterprises. Michele and I talk about getting into the hospitality business, what hospitality really means to us, and we swap some war stories. Michele was a delight, and I know you'll enjoy getting to know her. This episode was a blast. Check out the Dine & Dish podcast on all platforms, and thanks so much for listening to this one.
