In this episode of Restaurant Leaders Unplugged, host Sebastian Stahl sits down with longtime Miami restaurateur Jimmy Carey, whose journey from dishwasher to chef to multi-location owner and now restaurant broker is filled with hard-earned lessons and practical wisdom.
Jimmy shares his 37-year journey through the highs and lows of the restaurant business — from underfunded beginnings and expansion challenges to understanding people, systems, and profitability. Learn how he reinvented himself after decades in operations to now help others buy, sell, and scale restaurants across Atlanta.
If you’re a restaurant owner, chef, or aspiring operator, this conversation is packed with truth, humility, and real-world advice on building sustainable success in today’s evolving restaurant industry.
