Restaurant Season — The Story of Opening, Running & Surviving a Restaurant

What does it really take to build a great restaurant? Emma Reed thinks she knows. After more than a decade inside ambitious restaurants, she has spent years imagining what she would do differently if the place were hers. Better food. Better service. Better decisions. No careless compromises. Then she opens Luna. Restaurant Season is a serialized fictional audio drama about ambition, hospitality, money, pressure, leadership—and the thousand interconnected decisions behind a restaurant guests experience for only a few hours. Follow Emma as the restaurant she has imagined for years becomes real, and as she discovers that knowing what excellence looks like is very different from building an organization capable of producing it. The problems rarely arrive all at once. They begin as reasonable decisions, small compromises, overlooked signals and victories that carry consequences of their own. And sometimes, you will see what is happening before Emma does. Start with Episode One. Once Luna opens its doors, every decision matters.
