#109 - Sheri Drewry and the True Treasure of Balboa Island

As much as we like to look ahead when it comes to hospitality - what's next, what's trendy, or new openings - it is imperative we remember to look behind. Appreciating and celebrating those places that laid more than just the foundations of a great business, but community. They transcend a spot to eat or drink and transform into something woven into the very fabric of people's everyday life. I sit down with Sheri Drewry of Wilma's Patio to discuss how this business - around for 40 years - has become such a place.The Best Ceats Podcast brings unprecedented access to the Orange County hospitality industry each and every episode.
