This week on the Extra Serving podcast, a Nation’s Restaurant News podcast, NRN editors Holly Petre, Sam Oches and Leigh Anne Zinsmeister talked about Subway’s potential bidders.

Subway has a list of potential suitors including Goldman Sachs and Bain Capital. Who are these players and what could they have in store for the chain with the most units in the U.S.?

Plus, what’s going on with catering? Chains from Sweetgreen to Cracker Barrel seem to be introducing catering programs and they’re wildly successful. Are consumers returning to their offices? Are people having more parties? The editors discussed.

And finally, the editors discussed women in foodservice. From new programs for women in the workforce to restaurant concepts highlighting women, this Women’s History Month seems to be full of people honoring women, but will it stick?

This week’s guest is Charlie Morrison, CEO of Salad and Go.
