Cecile and I are proud to announce that her sister Sherry’s son, Jacob Schwimmer, has been promoted to Associate Partner with "Lettuce Entertain You" Restaurants. He will continue to oversea the Ema and Aba restaurant brands in the greater Chicagoland area. He lovingly thanked his beloved wife Amy Telpner @luv2style76 for being his "biggest cheerleader.” As a team player he extended his gratitude to all his Partners for helping him grow and provide him guidance along his career path.
Jacob, your aunt Cecile and I, and of course your mother, have been some of your biggest fans. You inspire by having ambitious dreams, then putting the hard work to achieve them. We extend our heartfelt congratulations on achieving this latest career milestone. We always had faith that you could do it. Some of our greatest memories have been eating at many of the restaurants you have worked at during your career.
Of course, the latest one was at Aba (meaning father in Hebrew) in June 2022, in the historic Fulton Market District, where your aunt Cecile used to buy food for her father’s Deli (Weiner Foods) back in the day. Aba is one of the most exotic, delicious, and impeccable Mediterranean and California-style dining experiences we have ever had. The ambiance on the rooftop patio was outstanding. I have included some memorable photos of the time we shared together. Of course whenever I post our dining experiences in California, Maui and around the world, we always think of you.
