I loved this episode. Passion runs deep in all restaurants, but the magic formula to creating a truly great restaurant can be elusive.

She transformed her father’s 37 year old Los Angeles restaurant and re-branded it with her own vision in every way. In fact along with other accolades, her new restaurant “Love & Salt”, was named “LA’s Best Restaurant Comeback Story” by Forbes Magazine.
