After deciding to open Ada’s,
Shannon took over renovating and
decorating “It’s her brainchild,” said
Doug, “everything from the decor
to the menu. We work together on
this.”
Macmillan was instrumental in
launching the culinary program at
Arroyo Grande High School. Ongo-
ing support for the program in-
cludes a scholarship program from
the family restaurants and often
hiring culinary program students to
work at Ada’s.
“I want to give these kids the
tools to be successful.” No matter
what the job, whether it is busing
tables or washing dishes, everyone
is an important part of the team.
MacMillan feels it is his job to make
sure his teams are successful. This
requires having a good teacher and
more importantly, a good commu-
nicator. The MacMillan kids also
help out, carrying on the family
business tradition.
