À propos de ce podcast
Maître d’ Diaries is an award-winning front of the house industry podcast hosted by two OG New York maître d’s, Dante Camara and Erica Cantley.
We take you behind the podium, between the tables, and inside the minds of the people who welcome and serve you in your favorite restaurants.
You’ll meet industry pros, hear stories of dining room nightmares, service successes, and luxury excesses, get tips on how to be a good guest, find out how the people who take care of you take care of themselves, and learn what restaurant behavior we think needs to be 86ed.
