Imagine a teenage passion for cake decorating leading to a high-flying career opening and investing in numerous restaurants, consulting to top hospitality groups, and then just before Covid hit, opening a new wine bar and restaurant.
In this episode of the Restaurant Rockstars Podcast, I’m speaking with Lindsey Anderson, a top sommelier and now proprietor of UVAE Kitchen & Wine Bar in Chicagoland.
During these challenging times, we could all use a dose of best practices so Tune-In, listen and learn as Lindsey dishes on her decades of success.
We’ll hear how Lindsey:
- became a top sommelier and wine expert
- her inspiration to open a new food concept centered around wine tasting and pairings
- how wine flights with shared plates, virtual wine dinners and a wine club are now Uvae’s competitive advantage
- what she’s done and doing to pivot during Covid-19 including Virtual Wine Dinners and Brunch for 2, Uvae’s Wine Club and selling Retail Wine-related Merchandise
Stay tuned and don’t miss Lindsey’s “Whatever It Takes” approach to relentlessly succeed during the pandemic, including jumping in to the kitchen to cook and personally delivering to her customers.
She’s a real Restaurant Rockstar.
Now go out there and Rock Your Restaurant!
