Today’s episode is titled Let's Eat!
When we talk about arts we tend to look towards visual, performance, and music but today we decided to focus on an art form that we all wish we could master, the Culinary arts. Cooking is a mixture of science, math, art, and of course love. Food brings people together at tables across the world and lately Tulsa has been making strides in the culinary with restaurants like Noches being a semifinalist for a James Beard award, to Trenchers being featured on Guy Fireri’s Bite Club, and a slew of other amazing restaurants making headlines around the world.
Tulsa has become a foodie haven.
Often times we think more about the food on our plate versus the hands and minds that craft masterpieces in the kitchens. So join me as speak to two of Tulsa’s culinary artists our first guest is probably our most recongizable, Chef Casey Tarochine is the master of the grill at one of Tulsa’s hottest hangouts Tina’s where smashburgers and cocktails reign supreme. Our second guest isnt a native Tulsan but has truly fallen in love with our city just as much as we have fallen in love with him. Chef Chad Cherry is the Co-Founder of Refresh Live & Chef Kulture and has been in the restaurant/ food service industry for almost twenty years. His journey in the culinary field began after he was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes and spent a month in the hospital on what he calls an “unplanned vacation”. Chef learned, firsthand, the challenges of living with a disease and finding prepared meals that support healthier eating.
