Today Is A Reason To Celebrate with Guest: Gavin Kaysen

  • Minnneapolis, Minnesota USA (map)

Gavin is the owner of Soigne Hospitality (Spoon and Stable, Bellecour, Demi)

His restaurants provide a sense of home, comfort, and belonging because they have heart. Gavin believes “Our heart is our people”.

Because of this, they have launched Heart of the House Foundation as a non-profit organization to sustain the growth, health, and prosperity of their Soigné Hospitality family. Restaurant closures sparked by COVID-19 revealed the profound vulnerability of the beloved hospitality community, and theFoundation’s immediate purpose is to provide bridge support to team members and their families during these uncertain times.

A rising tide lifts all ships. We are grateful for the privilege of being in service to this community and appreciate your generosity.

Gavin and his wife Linda made the first $10k contribution to Heart of the House Foundation

After closing his restaurants due to COVID-19 related health concerns, Gavin sprung to action, lobbying local government for a deadline extension on the monthly Sales & Use Tax. Within 24 hours Gavin had launched an online petition, spoke directly with the Mayor, and successfully secured the tax deadline extension for all who owe Sales & Use tax securing an important cushion for businesses throughout the state.
