“When the budget’s tight you have to use your mind… I think you get more creative when you have less.”

Troy Guard, Chef & CEO, TAG Restaurant Group

Another LIVE audience – what a great time interviewing Colorado’s legendary Chef Troy Guard.  Like many restauranteurs, Troy started at the bottom in the business (a teenager, making sandwiches).  UNLIKE most successful chefs-turned-owners, Troy hasn’t built out one concept – he’s created several and continues to grow via new concepts rather than more locations.  This made me really curious – a primary reason for wanting to interview him.
