A Popular Restaurant's Secret Recipe to Surviving the Pandemic
from Let's Talk with Mark & Michelle · host Mark
The Covid pandemic has been rough on businesses, especially restaurants. So many have floundered and failed, or have had trouble keeping employees. In this episode of “Let’s Talk” we talk with the owner of Mondo’s Ristorante italiano in Tulsa. Mondo’s is truly a family run business. Rob is among 8 Aloisios who work there. We discuss the big changes ahead for the popular restaurant, and the path his family took from Italy to Tulsa to realize their dream of owning a restaurant. Also, why Mondo’s wasn’t the first choice to call the restaurant, plus the remarkable reason Mondo’s not only survived the pandemic, but thrived. We also have fun. Hear the amazing story on how we met Rob (think aliens), and the surprising answer to “Where do you eat when not at Mondo’s?”
