This week on The Late Night Restaurant Podcast, we sit down with one of Canada's most respected hospitality icons: Doug Stephen, founder of WOW Hospitality Group. From early dreams of becoming a doctor to finding his true calling in restaurants, Doug shares his incredible journey from pizza cook at 15 to industry legend and Hall of Famer. With nearly five decades in the business, he opens up about leadership, legacy, and how hospitality is so much more than a job—it's a way of life. This episode is packed with wisdom, warmth, and a few laughs (and yes, we finally get to ask what he’d be doing if he wasn’t in hospitality). Don’t miss this one!
