You can’t just talk about the food- you have to talk about how the food is delivered to you.” [16:45] — Sarah Krathen on The Morning After “We are really the Seinfeld of restaurants. We didn’t have a ‘thing’- we just opened.” [41:10] — Jason Vincent on The Morning AfterSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
