TV host, chef, comes to celebrate, feed Anna Maria Island
One of TV’s most famous “foodies,” Guy Fieri, took a moment to chat with Susanne Arbanas during his Nov. 13 visit to Holmes Beach to feed first responders and others at his foundation food trailer and tent. Arbanas, whose business is Anna Maria Island Concierge Services, on introducing herself to Fieri, was asked what she does. Her reply, “I’m the director of contagious enthusiasm.” She said it pretty much left him speechless. And Arbanas was too tactful to say, but it was an “expression of ‘Wow!’” Islander Courtesy Photo
