GOING DIGITAL WITHOUT A MANUAL. Host Paul Molinari takes a break from product and vendor briefings to deliver something more personal — a 40-year journey through restaurant tech through the lens of Gen X. From washing dishes at a Long Island restaurant in 1985 to navigating AI-driven tech stacks today, Molinari traces how his generation lived through every major disruption the industry has seen — the first POS systems, OpenTable, Y2K, third-party delivery, COVID, and now artificial intelligence — and why that hard-won, skeptical-but-practical perspective is exactly what the industry needs right now.
