From puffy tacos to property owner with Libby Billings, owner of Elote, The Vault and Roppongi
Welcome to Tulsa Talks presented by Tulsa Regional Chamber.
On this episode Libby Billings reflects on 14 years operating downtown restaurants. It started with a $30,000 bank loan in 2008 and a plan to serve puffy tacos, and now she owns the building Elote resides in. She discusses the current state of restaurants more than two years into the COVID-19 pandemic and reflects on her career path to date. Libby also talks about her efforts in revitalizing downtown Deco's District and how far it's come, plus more.
Following that conversation, hear a new single from OKC-based hard rockers Sisteria, which is releasing their debut album Aug. 19 on Horton Records. Hear them live Sept. 23 at Vanguard in support of Rainbows are Free.
