Meeting Bryan Flannery

The road trip continues. Of course we had to fly first from New York to get to San Francisco 🙂 We stayed in the city but found ourselves going out of the city most of the time. We drove around 2 hours from the city to get to Corte Madera to meet the great guy behind the wonderful steaks that James has been bringing in.

We only met Bryan by phone and through his website

We saw his shop and was surprised to see that it is a full line gourmet store and that he sells more than just steaks

and finally we meet the real Bryan Flannery! He is a superstar to us and we are honored to meet him! Just like any good and well run business, it is important that the owner is there and is hands on. One of the nicest things about doing business is meeting the people behind the company. Learning about them, how they grew their business and how passionate they are.

He took us to what he calls his “Playroom”

Wow!! This is where he dry ages his beef.

Most of the steaks are already sold and reserved for clients! It’s a good thing we have some allocation for the Philippines 🙂

Even Javier was amazed!! “Bryan Flannery is the coolest guy I have ever met!”

Javier enjoyed his visit and he could not resist to ask Bryan for some brownies from the shop which were really really good we fought over them in the car!
