Our October Roundtable took us to Cebu, a vibrant contemporary Filipino restaurant in Lakeview. We were joined by Co-Owners, Chef Malvin Tan and General Manager Marlon Tan, who shared their journey of choosing Chicago as the place to build both their business and community presence. They highlighted several major milestones, from showcasing their signature dishes at Lollapalooza to cultivating a diverse customer base through local community-focused events and experiences. Our educational segment featured Mackenzie Trout of SpotOn, who continued our meaningful conversation about bringing people together. She shared valuable insights on how their POS systems and restaurant technology can help businesses better understand their customers. By leveraging consumer data and integrated marketing tools, owners and operators can create more personalized guest experiences, strengthen customer loyalty, and drive long-term engagement.
