Episode 26: Joe Carroll

This week we had on the accomplished restaurateur, Joe Carroll, the mind behind several Williamsburg Brooklyn mainstays, including BBQ joint Fette Sau, and the St Anselm Steakhouse. In this conversation (featuring guest host Katy De Koning), we hear from Joe on his pivot from a music career to the restaurant world, and on the creativity with which he approached restaurant concepts, which has resulted in an impressive empire that now spans cities and states. Joe also reflected on how he handles setbacks and failures, discussed the new normal with COVID-19 in the restaurant industry, and even had some thoughts on the future of meat.
