I had the pleasure of sitting down with my new friend, Nathan McLaughlin.
Nathan is one third of the ownership group behind three great restaurants in Edmonton, The Next Act Pub, MEAT and Pip (there's a 4th owner of Pip).
Nathan is one of the most talented chefs in Edmonton, which has helped make a winning formula for the "three dips," when it comes to opening a successful restaurant. It doesn't hurt that they are all great friends and wonderful people.
He was kind enough to share his story with me about how he went from a chef who was struggling with debt and his place in the industry, to become a very successful restauranteur in Edmonton. He's also a huge Oilers fan.
Go check out all three of their restaurants on 104th street, just North of Whyte Avenue. You won't be disappointed.

Jessica Culo has been killing it in YEG business since she was a young woman right out of college. Her 15+ years of experience with B2B Marketing, running a business in a volatile market, passion for being an entrepreneur and great advice for employees and employers alike, make this a great listen.
And if that doesn't help, I was hungover and in a silly mood when we talked, so that's kind of weird.

In part 1 of this interview with my good buddy, Jay Downton, I learn the story of how him and his business partner Clark turned a little sports blog into a media company and lifestyle brand.
In part 2, we will discuss how they're growing Oodle Noodle and their new and most ambitious project, The River Valley Company.
Lastly, when I listened to it, I thought it sounded rude when I said it was a "joke site," like it was a joke. I meant parody site.
