Getting Arrested on the Job, Hustling for Dreams & The Hospitality Grind
This week on Sips & Secrets by Leticia Duarte, we’re joined by Bobby Solez for a wild, unfiltered dive into the chaos of the hospitality world. 🍸 From getting arrested on the job to chasing dreams while surviving restaurant life, Bobby opens up about the real grind behind the glam — long nights, big risks, and the small wins that keep you going. We talk about what it’s like to work in this industry while trying to build something bigger, keeping your circle tight, and staying grounded when life throws you curveballs. If you’ve ever worked in a restaurant, bartended your way through your dreams, or just love hearing real stories from the trenches of hospitality — this one’s for you.
