The Dining Table

The suburban scene’s restaurant king

Episode Summary

Ballyhoo Hospitality's Ryan O’Donnell just opened another restaurant in Lincoln Park, but his biggest splash may be in the suburbs. In this episode, host David Manilow talks to O’Donnell about the difference between diners in the city and suburbs, as well as his dramatic shift from the life of a chef to the front of the house. Plus, you’ll hear about the Manilow family’s recent food adventures in France, Spain, and the U.K. — including what sets Europe apart from the U.S. when it comes to dining out.
