Show Notes
A restaurateur with 7 NYC restaurants and a passion for fitness, his restaurants have succeeded in large part due to Chernow's keen sense of emotional intelligence. One of the unique ways he keeps his staff happy is the emphasis he places on fitness in the workplace and the program he started to cultivate this. The interview takes place in Seamore's which specializes in locally caught species that are delectable but often overlooked. Dogfish, for example, is just as tasty as trendier fare. Chernow is working new projects with a voracious diligence Chernow can trace back to his childhood. As a kid he walked dogs and delivering food to transcend his family's modest lifestyle. Lessons 1. Don't underestimate anyone. There's no way of gauging how valuable a relationship will be down the line. 2. Don't "want," "need," or "wish" …. "do." 3. Cultivate a happy, cohesive team and the guests will be made happy as a matter of course.
