Have you ever wandered into a place that felt like a celebration wrapped in a warm, family embrace? That's the magic Mike Cole brings to the table at Lost Pizza in Northport. This episode, I, Patricia Blondheim, am thrilled to share a slice of life with Mike, whose journey from Big Mike's to the partner of a flourishing pizzeria chain is as flavorful as the Delta tamales they serve. We're not just talking pepperoni and cheese here—Lost Pizza dishes out an explosion of tastes wrapped in a funky, bluesy ambiance sure to leave you craving more. From the upbeat arcade that delights kids to the personal stories that shape our guest's passion for hospitality, this chat is a must-listen for anyone who relishes good food and great company.

Our conversation goes beyond the aroma of fresh pizza; it's about the heart of community and the joy of connecting with people. As a former educator, Mike spills the secret sauce on finding fulfillment in the hustle of the restaurant scene. He brings to light the challenges and triumphs of creating a space where memories are made and laughter is as abundant as the toppings on their pizzas. And don't forget, your voice matters to us! We wrap up with an invitation to nominate your beloved local businesses in Birmingham and Northport for a chance to be featured and celebrated on our Good Neighbor Podcast.
