Locals in Orlando have all heard of The Pharmacy — a modern day speakeasy-themed restaurant in downtown Orlando. Anyone who’s visited knows a secret password is necessary to enter (and, the door is actually cleverly concealed — like a true speakeasy).
On this episode, Chef Owner Loren Falsone tells her tale of working at the world-famous Al Forno’s in Providence, RI, before opening her third venture here in Florida, The Pharmacy.
What we talked about:
How The Pharmacy was funded on a handshake by a wealthy local businessman

Working with & reaching out to the local Orlando community
