He highlights the challenges of scaling the business, including decisions against franchising to maintain quality, and the integration of automation like the "infinite kitchen" to enhance efficiency. Neman also addresses adapting to consumer trends, such as eliminating seed oils from their menu, and emphasizes the importance of strategic real estate choices and responding to evolving customer preferences. (01:32:38) - Ashlee Vance is an American journalist and author, renowned for his 2015 biography of Elon Musk and his work as a feature writer for Bloomberg Businessweek.
