Kitchen 324

One of the most welcome shifts toward normalcy since COVID-19 vaccines rolled out has been the return of dining out. One of the things I missed most was brunch. Sure, I can make it at home, but there’s something so enjoyable about a lazy Sunday morning letting someone else do the cooking and clean-up.  Kitchen No. 324, from A Good...

A Little Bit of Hope

In 2015, when chef Hope Egan decided to open her own full-service catering company in a small midtown-Tulsa kitchen, her life looked a lot different than it does today.

An amalgam of events aligned to create the bustling Vintage Wine Bar in downtown Tulsa.  A brilliant high school physics teacher, Colin Sato, put his career on hold to become a chef. He walked into one of the city’s top restaurants unannounced and started work as a line cook the next morning.  A young bartender, Matt Sanders, decided to stock a...
