Grish’s Story
At Feast, everyone is welcome—whether to dine or serve! Girish, one of our incredible front-of-house volunteers, had never worked in a restaurant before, but that didn’t stop him from jumping in after learning about our mission.
During Inlander Restaurant Week 2024, Girish stepped up on some of our busiest nights and absolutely crushed it.
His kindness, calm energy, and steady presence have made him a cherished member of Team Feast.
