Episode 17: The "Black Napkin" of Burgers and Fries
Manage episode 350560504 series 3329594
The Black Napkin, Korin Hollinshead, and Jason Richardson’s takeout restaurant in Grand Rapids is a reference to the Frank Zappa song, but it’s also a tongue-in-cheek nod to black napkins associated with high-end dining. Korin shares details of moving from their ice cream tricycle to a brick-and-mortar, as well as how they are leveraging technology to improve their margin and focus on customers and working with her romantic partner.
