From the Table of our Master Enchilada Roller ...a message from Russell Ybarra 'Success requires no apologies; failure permits no alibis. Every failure brings with it the seed of an equivalent success. Henry Ford, poor and uneducated, dreamed of a horseless carriage. He went to work with the tools he possessed without waiting for opportunity to favor him. Practical dreamers do not quit. All who succeed in life usually get off to a bad start and pass through many heartbreaking struggles before they arrive. The turning point in the lives of those who succeed usually comes at the moment of some crisis through which they are introduced to their other selves.' ~ Napoleon Hill I always enjoy reading this excerpt from Napoleon Hill's 1928 book The Laws of Success in Sixteen Lessons. It helps keep me grounded by reminding me of Gringaux's Seafood Kitchen — a $3.8M seafood restaurant I opened in October 2006 and unfortunately closed 14 months later... A friend of mine, who is also in the restaurant business, gave me some 'words of wisdom' soon after closing my restaurant. He said, 'Russell, the restaurant business is like baseball. As long as you're batting a high average, you'll do OK.' That was one of the best things I could have heard. With the current success of Gringo's, it's always humbling to remember these life lessons. Thank you to all of our loyal guests, who have become a part of the Gringo's family. We couldn't do it without you! Shhh…The Secret's in the Sauce! Everyone is always asking about our amazing Amazon Sauce Recipe. We know — it's the best! So, we've decided to share our secret! {There may be some trial and error to get it just the way you want, but that's part of the fun, right?
