Beyond Compere

Welcome Back Y'all! If I weren't such a nerd, I would apologize for the punny name of this episode. But I am, so there you go. This week we are thrilled to be joined by one of the most talented and recognized bartenders in New Orleans: Abigail Gullo of Compere Lapin. I'd like to think that Abigail truly embodies what it means when you find New Orleans and it becomes your home. Her style of hospitality is so reflective of the nature of this city that you would swear that she has been here all her life. Abigail, in this week's episode, gives us some insight into her take on bars and how she came to be a bartender. We then have the chance to talk about the inherent gender bias that plagues not only our industry, but almost all professions. Y'all. There's no such thing as "Girl Bartenders". There are bartenders who are strong, embattled women who try to make a difference through their passion and craft. Get with it if you're not already there. Anywho, had a great time with this one. Hope y'all enjoy it, and let us know what you think! Steve
