Boomerang! from Club Bardo in Savannah

HERITAGE RADIO NETWORK
About this episode

Greg returns with another Boomerang episode, this one live from Savannah's Club Bardo with industry luminary Eben Klemm. The two discuss trends in high end hospitality, the state of the union for hotel bars, and what makes the city of Savannah so unique. They also dig into what it takes to hire and train a team to run Hotel Bardo's restaurant, Saint Bibiana.

Plus, it turns out Eben was something of a mentor for a certain other Speakeasy Host. Tune in to find out who.
