Our guest this week is professional restauranteur, George Wood, owner of Georgie’s Garden Café and Bar George in the University Town Center district, in Sarasota. You’ll learn more about how George voluntarily dropped out of high school to pursue a career in professional golf, and how that ultimately led him down the path of becoming a successful owner of several restaurants and bars, at just the age of 23!
George explains how his father challenged him to create a series of experiences that would make him more excited about living in Sarasota. And he even shares some news about future expansion, with some new restaurant and bar concepts that will be debuting in downtown Sarasota very soon.
If you are looking for things to do in Sarasota, and would like to have a new and unique dining experience, or want to give a brand new bar a try, we recommend you check out Georgie's and Bar George, both located in the UTC District in Sarasota, Florida
229 N. Cattlemen Rd #69
