Ep 13 Brigitte Raye

Restauranteur Extraordinaire

The statistics suck. Small independent restaurants have a survival rate that is so poor you can’t help but wonder how do any of them survive? Food costs are soaring, rental costs, taxes, wages are all pointing upward. How can anyone survive?

As someone who appreciates the unique dining experiences that independent boutique restaurants offer, I reached out to the owner and founder of one of my favorites, Orto which is in North Vancouver.

What makes it a favorite of mine starts with the owner who is always on the floor making sure that everyone who enters feels special. She really knows everyone’s name. So how in a place like Vancouver can she survive when so many don’t?

In this episode of Careers That Matter we meet the remarkable Brigitte Raye to share her life long passion for the food service industry and share a few insights into how to make it as an independent.
