Coming from a Greek family with deep restaurant roots, Dino Katris tried to escape his ultimate destiny – but he always came back to restaurants. In just a short time, Dino has become recognized for honoring the legacy of classic eateries while giving them renewed energy.  Most recently he helped bring a downtown restaurant back with Mr. Yee’s, 5030 Sixth Ave., he is also involved in Yogi’s Pud’n, 2302 52nd St – and coming in Spring 2026  - Melkat’s, 7943 Sheridan Road. We talk to Dino about his past, present and future ventures, and his connection to Kenosha!  This episode was recorded on November 23rd, 2025 at the Better Call Parise Recording Studio in Downtown Kenosha – call on the Law Offices of Frank J.
