  • Ep 134 - Mel Toledo
    Oct 30 2024

    Mel Toledo is the chef and owner of the Foundation Social Eatery in Alpharetta, Georgia. Mel was born in Puerto Rico, but his training in French kitchens made him a bit of a tyrant about how he wanted his kitchen run. He says it took therapy to learn that he'd get a more efficient kitchen if he used encouragement rather than tyranny. Mel Toledo, on the Hidden F&B.
