Hunter Evans on winning awards without losing yourself

I can’t tell you how many folks reach out to me with struggling businesses. Interestingly enough, they’re not interested in learning how to run a better business, they’re interested in learning how to win awards. Something as significant as a Michelin star or as simple as a James Beard Nomination can mean the difference between a busy dining room and closing your doors. Today we sit down with Hunter Evans, the chef/owner of Elvie’s to discuss the blessings and the curses that come along with the accolades we desire and most certainly deserve.  For more information on the chef and his restaurant, visit https://www.elviesrestaurant.com/. ____________________________________________________ Full Comp is brought to you by Yelp for Restaurants: In July 2020, a few hundred employees formed Yelp for Restaurants.
