We were lucky to catch up with EJ Hurley recently and have shared our conversation below.
EJ, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Crazy stuff happening is almost as certain as death and taxes – it’s technically “unexpected” but something unexpected happening is to be expected and so can you share a crazy story with our readers
I recall our first year in business and we were selling preorder plates during the pandemic since everyone was ordered to stay out of the public. We prepared everything in a kitchen about the size of a standard bathroom and made it work. We did not make much starting out, it was alot of humbling days as far as profit- but we believed in our skills and vision and started to see progress.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.
I am EJ Hurley, Owner of Cliche Cuisine LLC and serial entrepreneur. I am a self made chef from the city of Atlanta. I have used my network and marketing abilities to gain surface in the food industry as well as network and surface other industries such as cannabis and sport’s analytics.

I pride myself on enjoying life and bringing happiness to others.
We’d love to hear about how you met your business partner.
I met my Cofounder Myles Flowers through playing football at Clark Atlanta University. I had got word that he was selling hot plates around campus and it seemed like the perfect fit being that we already had a good relationship.
