About Seller:

Thomas Genin, the owner of The Blind Tiger, began his culinary career under Emeril Lagasse and since has conceived, built, and operated and host of different restaurant concepts. His first establishment was Tigres in Pass Christian, MS. Tigres was a Coast favorite offering fine dining until it was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina in August of 2005.

Thomas loves to travel the Bahamas and the Caribbean. He liked the casual bars, the open air, laid back feel, and the good food he found in little out-of-the-way places there. So, he conceived a restaurant where you could have the same type of experience without the travel time and expense of actually going to the islands. He and a partner built three locations before he sold his share and set out once again on his culinary journey.

This led to experimentation with a series of restaurant concepts including The Blind Tiger, Marina Cantina, RAW, Whiskey Prime, AJAX, Mother Cluckers, the TBT Boil Room, and The Shrimp Factory.

The original Blind Tiger location was so successful that it led Thomas to expand to three more locations in Biloxi, Slidell, LA, and Madisonville, LA. with more on the way.
