"Heather Lesher, the opening general manager of Pizzeria Beddia, was gifted a wine key... Heather ushered a new business through a time when every restaurant was struggling to stay afloat... Lesher’s experience is essential to the continued success of the restaurant... Joe [Beddia] definitely wanted to do natural wine but there were some hesitations about that... surviving the pandemic and being recognized by our guests for providing a place that felt safe; I feel like we came out of the pandemic with a stronger team... The host and the dishwasher are two of the most crucial roles in the restaurant. We need restaurants for a healthy functioning society." - Sadie Pennington
