Hello! Welcome back to another edition of Go Fork Yourself. We’ve got a lot to discuss today, from great cookbooks to a column about waiters getting punished for customer complaints. Speaking of the hospitality industry…

I wanted to personally share something special with you because the hospitality industry is in desperate need of some help. This is MAJC, a platform and community built for the people who keep the hospitality industry moving every day.

MAJC is packed with real-world tools, strategies and systems designed to help hospitality pros thrive:

• A Proven Operating System—Streamline, simplify and scale without the burnout.

• Training & Playbooks—Step-by-step guides to help your team execute at the highest level.

• Live Expert Sessions—Private conversations with top industry minds sharing what’s working right now.

• Marketing & Growth Strategies—Tactical, ready-to-use campaigns to boost revenue and retention.

• A Community of Operators Helping Operators—No fluff, just real solutions.

And here’s the best part—I’m giving you a 6-month free pass to share with your crew. Use this code: 6WITHZIMMERN

Pass it to your team and colleagues. Share it with industry friends who could use a leg up. Drop it in group chats, Slack channels or wherever your people are.

MAJC was launched because they know how tough this industry can be—and it doesn’t have to be that way. If this can help someone in your world, I’d be grateful if you shared it, too.

Every week I take questions about ANYTHING from subscribers to Spilled Milk. In previous weeks I’ve talked about the fall of Salt Bae, N/A bev speak and where to eat in Tokyo. Direct message questions, and paid subscribers can ask questions in the comments section below. You can also email spilledmilk@andrewzimmern.com.
