Becca

What do the top two restaurants on this list have in common? They both have the same magical advisor— a woman who, I believe, has launched more hot hospitality brands than any other person in the world.  She happens to be a friend and a business partner too.  Her name is Becca Parrish. I discovered Becca because I would go into every impossible-to-get-into restaurant in New York and ask, "who's behind this magic?" The same name came up: Becca, Becca, Becca. Thus, I sought out this person and asked her to be in business with me.  Congratulations to all the entrepreneurs, owners, and chefs on these fabulous new openings!

So impressed by this group of women — on the cover and behind the scenes.
