Finding Florida - Episode 12b: FRLA's Restaurant Show

For this adventure, Glenn and Jaime were invited by the Florida Restaurant & Lodging Association to cover their annual Florida Restaurant Show, which they held together with the Healthy Food Expo in Orlando. So, they grabbed their press passes and mics and hit the exposition floor--meeting, greeting, and eating their way through the Show. They found all kinds of Florida brands and businesses to highlight in this episode--some of which have been part of Florida's fabric for years, and others that are bringing fresh, new innovations to our local industries. Tune in as Jaime and Glenn introduce you to some of the best personalities in the biz!! Special thanks to the team at the Florida Restaurant & Lodging Association! Listen in...
