About this episode

Chef Paul Callahan is the Executive Chef and a Partner at Vino E Vivo in Exeter, NH. Chef Paul was previously on the show in 2015 for episode 135! Chef Paul left Brine and Ceia in Newburyport, MA, two restaurants he was running, in 2019 because he was feeling burnt out. He then attempted to turn his homestead into a farm-to-table restaurant/kitchen and permaculture. When those plans fell through, he ended up back in kitchens. He eventually landed at Vino E Vivo as Executive Chef. Since starting there in 2019, he has increased revenue 4x.
