But you're losing sleep for the purpose of 105 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 3: a legacy, right, So like I'm building this legacy, and 106 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 3: so yes, it requires time, and I you know, I 107 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,159 Speaker 3: have to like constantly be thinking about things to do. 108 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:57,840 Speaker 3: But like like you said, had I not done it, 109 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 3: had I not jumped off the cliff to to start 110 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:04,239 Speaker 3: this business, I wouldn't be the only restaurant on Staten 111 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 3: Island in its history to receive two stars in The 112 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 3: New York Times by Peter Wells, who I have to 113 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 3: just really say thank you for because after twelve years 114 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:17,159 Speaker 3: of service, he's announced he's coming off the table. 115 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 2: He's not doing that. 116 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:19,920 Speaker 1: While some of the last great things he did, you 117 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 1: say put me on Yeah, Shawnee's on the map.

Okay, sonight you do 120 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 1: because the last time you were here, you weren't sure 121 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:32,600 Speaker 1: about getting a bigger place. 122 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,719 Speaker 3: You know. I don't want to expand what I have 123 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,720 Speaker 3: there because I think that that's kind of like operating 124 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 3: as my flagship. 125 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 2: I think that that's the place where people are going 126 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:43,160 Speaker 2: to want to go. 127 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:47,279 Speaker 3: And when I do decide to open up another space, 128 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 3: it is going to be another extension of Shawnee's house. 129 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 3: So it may be a den, or it may be 130 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:53,839 Speaker 3: a living room or maybe a deck or maybe you know, 131 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 3: like something that's cool and cute, and it's still a 132 00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:58,719 Speaker 3: part of me, and it's still a part of my 133 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 3: lifestyle and the things that I do. But it gives 134 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 3: me an opportunity to kind of like be creative with 135 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:03,360 Speaker 3: the space. 136 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 1: People listening right now, going God, this is what I 137 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 1: want to do. You can do it now. There's a 138 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,479 Speaker 1: Shawnee and Philly listening to us right now. There's a 139 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 1: Shawnee in Miami listening to us right now, and they're like, yeah, 140 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 1: I get this concept of the soul food Festival, which 141 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: goes outside the boundaries of food and to all sorts 142 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 1: of other things, finding vendors to be a part of this. 143 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:24,600 Speaker 1: We have to get into that because there's people that 144 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:26,240 Speaker 1: want to be a part of this. Yes, Gandhi. 145 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:28,039 Speaker 2: So it's like a soul and food festival. 146 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,599 Speaker 3: It's a soul and food festival. So now you know, 147 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 3: I utilize the word soul as an acronym. So it's 148 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:38,559 Speaker 3: before I was like having this epiphany that soul meant 149 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 3: the spirit of unconditional love. And then God said, no, 150 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 3: you can't do that because you're not the spirit of 151 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 3: unconditional love, but you are a servant of unconditional love. 152 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,039 Speaker 3: And so this is about me serving my community in 153 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 3: order for me to build up this global you know, 154 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 3: movement of us being creative and growing and really like 155 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:01,039 Speaker 3: doing fascinating things that make us happy. 156 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:04,039 Speaker 2: You know, like we cannot walk around not being happy. Anymore. 157 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,280 Speaker 3: So we have to do the things that make us happy. 158 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 3: And it doesn't have anything to do with money, because 159 00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 3: that's not where Shawnee's house is at. So I got 160 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 3: two stars April first, that was no joke. And then 161 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 3: on that same week I was top fifty.
