Jessica Hazard, owner of NY Pie, joins us on Nashville Restaurant Radio to talk about the opening of her newest location in Capitol View and what she’s learned through the process of growing her business.Jessica is also a NARA member, and we talk about how that relationship has helped NY Pie identify opportunities to improve profitability, make stronger vendor connections, and build relationships with other people throughout Nashville’s restaurant community.We also get into Jessica’s roots in New Jersey, the inspiration behind NY Pie, and the realities of opening another restaurant location—the challenges, the excitement, and everything that comes with expansion.As always, the conversation goes beyond just one restaurant. We talk about the Nashville restaurant industry, ownership, relationships, growth, and plenty of the random restaurant stuff we love talking about.If you’re a restaurant owner, operator, or just someone who loves the business, this is a great conversation with one of Nashville’s independent restaurant owners.
