Will shares how the magic of service lies in the smallest gestures, revealing that true connection is fostered not through grandeur, but through genuine care and creativity.
From sending hot dogs on fine china to using hand signals to pour water silently, Guidara’s approach to hospitality is a lesson in making people feel seen and valued.
