“Inspired by working internationally, and aiming to be able to provide to a variety of diets, an Erie couple looks to open a new restaurant this summer.”

“This past month was the one year anniversary of Piripi, a downtown Erie restaurant that in just under a year, and during a pandemic, has become a staple of the community.”

“No risk, no reward. I take calculated risks. I do my homework and research before I go all in. I also think if you commit yourself to hard work and perseverance your risk is lessened”

“Three months after opening their Latin Mediterranean bistro Piripi, named for the Spanish word for “tipsy,” Victoria and Hugo Meyer were dizzy with mandates and pivots.”

“Hugo was born and raised in Argentina and left there shortly after High School to look for better opportunity abroad”

I look up from my tablet. I'm mid way through yet another commission and the list of prospects keeps getting longer. Every Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday is booked.
