What this episode covers
This week's guests are another husband and wife duo with a knack for creativity and commitment to not taking themselves too seriously. We dig into what makes their small biz, Naked Pasta, so different and how they use local ingredients to craft one-of-a-kind culinary experiences. While "Having Fun" might not make most businesses' top priorities, for Chris & Brett, it's how they keep things interesting for themselves and how they keep their customers coming back for more pasta. Come by Fireforge Crafted Beer in Greenville, SC to hear Brett lead trivia at Vicinity's first in-person event on Thursday 7/22 @5:30 pm! RSVP here: https://www.facebook.com/events/1109941142862534
