In the Ring with John Tabone: A Restaurant Industry Throwdown! Ep: 052.

from DiMattia's Food Fight Podcast

In this episode, we sit down with John Tabone, the passionate force behind Bar PAZZO in Scranton, Pennsylvania. We dive deep into the highs and lows of the restaurant business—from the hustle of pre-COVID operations to the challenges of navigating the post-pandemic industry. John shares his perspective on how the restaurant world has evolved, what’s changed in the kitchen and the dining room, and how the workforce itself has shifted. We get candid about the new wave of employees, including the rise of self-proclaimed “chefs” and “sous chefs” who may not have earned those titles. It’s a real, unfiltered look at the state of the restaurant world from someone who’s lived it. Thank You To My Sponsors!
