EP: 68 Boom's! There it is! Bebenroth and Bennett Team Up to Build Cleveland's Next Great Pizza Joint
Boom's Pizza's slogan is "Born of Hard Times." Truer words were never spoken when it comes to the 18 months or so following March 2020. While most of us moved on as fast as we could rip off our masks, the restaurant industry and its people suffered a collective PTSD that, for some, remains today.
Episode 9 featured a version of Ben Bebenroth that was exhausted, disillusioned and unsure of the future. Fast forward to now, and Ben is collaborating with pal and fellow chef Jonathan Bennett (of Moxie and Red fame) to build a food enterrprise that feels good and tastes (damn) good. In this episode, you hear why their collaboration works as they tell the story of Boom's Pizza, a neighborhood pizza shop named for Ben's grandpa. In it you will also hear their commitment to build the life they owe themselves and their families as well as a business that can scale reasonably and be a great place to work.
This episode is presented by the Katz Group of Restaurants and Real Food Remedy.
