This Labor Day weekend, let’s talk about the work of restaurant building. Dalton Espaillat is a native of the Dominican Republic and moved to the Charlotte NC area when he was 15 and then began learning English. Today, he’s one of North Carolina’s fastest rising entrepreneurs, taking the success of his first restaurant, Three Amigos Mexican Cantina, and using those lessons to build 17 locations of fast casual concept Sabor Latin Street Grill, which serves street food from El Salvador, Dominican Republic, Venezuela, Mexico and Colombia. His newest restaurant baby, La Caseta, is inspired by the diverse staff of the company and their collective family traditions, but it’s his perseverance to see problems as puzzles instead of panic buttons that illustrates that true entrepreneurial spirit.
