In a recent episode of The Dining Table podcast with David Manilow, I had the pleasure of discussing what it means to lead Gene & Georgetti, Chicago’s oldest steakhouse, into the future. Founded by my grandfather, Gene Michelotti, in 1941, this iconic restaurant has remained a family business for over 80 years. During the episode, I share insights into how we honor our traditions while also evolving for the next generation. Curious about how we’ve kept it “in the family” and what’s next for Gene & Georgetti? Listen in to hear the full conversation!
