Chef, founder, and industry leader Aaron Noveshen helms San Francisco Bay Area’s Starbird, a chicken concept. Starbird debuted eight years ago hoping to “completely disrupt fast food,” per Noveshen. During that time, the brand has grown quickly, embraced most of the industry’s tech-forward growth tactics — including ghost kitchens, which he still talks about favorably!
On this episode, Noveshen describes the Starbird’s evolution while sharing much of what he’s learned leading a fast-moving, forward-thinking restaurant brand born in the country’s tech epicenter. (Plus, a major QR code-adjacent gripe from Brandon.)
