Join Josh as he moderates a compelling discussion with Eric Bromberg, co-founder of Blue Ribbon Restaurants, and John Karangis, executive chef at Shake Shack, exploring the fascinating intersection between fine dining and food at scale. This engaging conversation reveals the mutual lessons these two culinary worlds can teach each other, diving deep into the critical importance of precision, consistency, and innovation that drives success across both restaurant segments. The trio examines how scaling operations can actually sharpen efficiency and creativity, challenging traditional assumptions about what it means to deliver quality food at different service levels.

The discussion ventures into the evolving landscape of the food industry, touching on exciting possibilities for elevating food quality in unexpected places like hospitals and envisioning the future of quick service restaurants that refuse to compromise on high-quality dining experiences. Bromberg and Karangis share insights from their respective expertise in upscale dining and fast-casual innovation, while Josh guides the conversation through practical applications and industry trends. The summit concludes on an optimistic note, celebrating the next generation of chefs and the promising future of food businesses that are breaking down barriers between speed and quality, efficiency and excellence.
