As we covered at the end of Part 1 of our Chef Chat with Alberto Baffoni, after a highly successful run at his first Houston restaurant, Simposio, he sold his interest. Not every endeavor is a success story, though. His second place, Sapori, survived only about eight months.
Sometimes a failure means picking yourself up, dusting off and starting again, and that's what Baffoni did. After Sapori closed, Baffoni visited his parents in Italy, then returned to Houston to work in other people's restaurants.
