Chef Gruel is the founder and CEO of Slapfish, a sustainable seafood restaurant franchise based out of Huntington Beach, California with locations all over the country and in the UK. During the Covid shutdowns, restaurants were the hardest hit, especially the employees. Chef Gruel talks about how restaurants are naturally built to better handle health issues than most, how he started a relief fund to help restaurant workers who lost their jobs, the issues we face in schools, and government inefficacy as whole. We also talk sustainable seafood and how rising costs are going to impact it. Grab a glass! It's Happy Hour! There Will Be Bourbon!
