#142 – Steven Almonte (Entrepreneurship)
In this episode I speak with my best friend, Steven Almonte, about entrepreneurship while we drive to his latest venture, Aura Cocina & Bar. Aura’s cuisine is a modern Cuban-Asian fusion designed by celebrity chefs. The aesthetics of the locale, transport you into feeling like you’re walking the streets of Havana. Listen in to find out how this vision came to fruition, as we also discuss Steven’s other successful ventures like the Brooklyn staple, Caoba and Dominicana Cargo Express.
The Spun Today Podcast is a Podcast that is anchored in Writing & Random Rants, but unlimited in scope. Give it a whirl.
