Episode #45 - Jean Tomaro of Hogsalt

Don’t let this week’s guest’s low-key demeanor fool you — she is a creative powerhouse behind Hogsalt, a restaurant group known for their impeccable design and commitment to quality, and her work speaks for itself. On the precipice of their first (okay, technically second) foray into Paris, co-founder and beverage specialist Jean Tomaro joins us to chat the concept-to-implementation process, the importance of feedback, cardboard stand-ins, and the magnificence of the Vesper Martini. We also debate whether Small Cheval qualifies as a fast food joint — the results of which could spell major consequences for future Gratuity Rounds.
