Michael’s On East Inducted Into Fine Dining Hall of Fame!
Since the surreal news of joining the ranks of Nation’s Restaurant News Hall of Famers, our staff has been walking on air. Being inducted into the Fine Dining Hall of Fame is a once-in-a-career honor that I honestly did not see coming, but was elated to receive! The past two weeks have flown by as my staff and I work to find creative ways to use this accolade to transcend our great city of Sarasota into a true player among the world’s top dining destinations.
Anyone who has spent time in Sarasota knows that it would take months to dine your way through town to experience all the amazing restaurants we have to offer. From casual beachfront tiki bars, to chic cafes, to over the top fine dining restaurants, we have it all. My family has served this community in the hospitality business for over 40 years, and we have come to know our fellow restaurateurs and hoteliers very well. They are not our competition, they are our comrades, our friends. We learned years ago not to look at the guy across the street as our rival, but rather as a partner equally committed to improving the culinary culture of our community. Working together has brought us, and will continue to bring us, success!
Here’s to all the individuals in Sarasota and beyond that dedicate themselves everyday to providing guests with the impeccable service, exceptional cuisine and unrivaled atmosphere we have to offer!
