Ep. 178: The Caviar King of Philly, Gary Shusman

Philly's having a big caviar moment, and it's thanks in part to Gary Shusman. The hottest restaurants in the city partner with Caviar XS to upgrade their dishes with the smoothest, freshest caviar there is, and Gary loves converting the uninitiated into caviar fanatics.
