Oct 12 Ep. 58: Postcard from Iceland's Westfjords with restaurant maven Shayan Pandole

Happy October! The podcast is back! Join me and my delightful new guest in a journey to the Great North - Shayan Pandole is a food & beverage industry veteran who found herself leaving New York and moving to Iceland to join her husband’s family restaurant in the remote Westfjords. The Soho House and Ritz Carlton seem a world apart from the fish restaurant in a medieval timber tavern where I met Shayan while traveling in Iceland this summer. Take a trip with us to experience this beautiful country and different way of life!
