914: Martha Hoover Founder and President at Patachou, Inc

<p>Martha Hoover had zero restaurant experience prior to 1989; up to this point, she was a sex crime prosecutor. Not having any experience did not stop her, and neither did the sexism from her male counterparts. She would soon prove them wrong with the creation of  <a href="https://www.cafepatachou.com/">Café Patachou</a>. Now, 33 years later, Café Patachou scaled to become <a href="https://www.patachouinc.com/">Patachou Inc.</a> where Martha is the owner/operator of 6 unique brands (Café Patachou, <a href="https://www.petitechoubistro.com/">Petite Chou</a>, <a href="https://www.napolesepizzeria.com/">Napolese</a>, <a href= "https://www.publicgreensurbankitchen.com/">Public Greens</a>, <a href="https://www.baronefourteen.com/">Bar 114</a>, and <a href= "https://www.apocalypseburger.com/">Apocolypse Burger</a>) consisting of 14 total locations across Indianapolis. In addition, she has created The Patachou Foundation where she and her team directly feeds and educates 1,000 food-insecure children in Indianapolis.</p> <p>Check out <a href= "https://restaurantunstoppable.com/chris-schultz-voodoo-when-to-scale/"> episode 745 with Chris Schultz</a> about knowing when to scale as mentioned in today's episode!</p> <p>Check out <a href= "https://restaurantunstoppable.com/kristen-barnette-hungry-house/">episode 910 with Kristen Barnette</a> as mentioned in today's episode!</p> <p>Check out <a href= "https://restaurantunstoppable.com/nick-sarillo-trust-and-track-institute/"> episode 760 with Nick Sarillo</a> as mentioned in today's episode!</p> <p>Today’s feature affiliate: Bentobox.
