"It's Always been about Survival" ft. Ozzie Louis of Fowl Mouth We'll be Right Back: The Future of Hospitality

On this week's episode of We'll be Right Back, we are joined by Ozzie Louis of Fowl Mouth! Ozzie talks to us about bringing Puerto Rico's spectacular "chinchurros" to New Orleans as he transitioned his business to a permanent location at Lost Love Lounge - which he opened during Covid-19! We also discuss the importance of sustainability in the restaurant industry, as well as  displaying the value of a culture. 
 
Every episode we like to mention an amazing group or individual contributing to the relief effort. Today, we’d like to highlight and encourage you all to check out the Made in New Orleans Foundation (MiNO). MiNO envisions a New Orleans hospitality industry that leads the world in growing, supporting, and financing the success of people of color. They use a multidisciplinary approach to address and eliminate disparities facing hospitality professionals of color. In response to COVID-19 MiNO is providing immediate emergency financial aid and resources; supporting career and business recovery; and providing online programming to amplify the voices of hospitality professionals of color.
