FULL COMP: The Voice of the Restaurant Industry Revolution

Today, I might come off as a little hypocritical. I've had the good fortune of having my brands grace the pages of almost every food publication in the country. But I also spent years out of the spotlight and I remember how cold and frustrating those days were.
When you're in you're in. When you're out, you're out. Those days and that kind of journalism need to be done.
Today we chat with Antonio Diaz, founder of Life and Thyme, an independent food media magazine determined to highlight the people behind the products. It's a big publication telling small stories and today we hear Antonio's story and how he's taking professional responsibility for the recovery of our industry.
