Katie is joined by Jeff Mauro, her co-host of Food Network’s The Kitchen, aka The Sandwich King. Jeff hails from the great city of Chicago where he developed a love of food early on in his Italian-American family, working in local delis and butcher shops. Early on in school, Jeff discovered his passion for acting and comedy, which lead him to perform with both Piven Theater Workshop and Second City. Jeff tells the hilarious story of his time acting in Tony and Tina's Wedding, slowly working his way up from waiter to Tony over a period of five years, and the night he quite literally knocked the audience dead. He also shares his love story with his wife, Sarah Mauro.  After a short move to LA to pursue comedy and simultaneously attending culinary school, he auditioned for Next Food Network Star. He didn't make the cut the first time around, but Jeff did not give up, and auditioned an additional three times before he competed and won season 7 of the show. Jeff then hosted his signature show, Sandwich King, and was later cast on The Kitchen and several other Food Network productions. He has since expanded his empire with Mauro Provisions, his own gourmet line of Chicago classics like his famous giardiniera and Chicago Italian beef kits, available in retail and online. Listen for an episode of nonstop laughs (be forewarned, if you can't handle bathroom humor!) and great memories with Jeff and Katie. Links:https://mauroprovisions.com/ This episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

Living in close proximity to New York City, Missy’s family had a fondness for special occasion meals in the city, which exposed her to fine dining experiences and beautiful cuisine.During her senior year at Georgetown University, a chance meal at Charlie Trotter's on a trip to Chicago changed the course of her life. It was at this moment when she knew she wanted to be in the restaurant industry and become a chef.Missy went on to culinary school and trained in Italy before working at Spiaggia in Chicago (where she cooked for Madonna!) and later at A Voce in New York, where she maintained Michelin stars throughout her tenure.In 2016, Missy opened her own restaurant, Lilia, in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, which was an instant success overnight, with a three-star review from the New York Times, and has remained that way to this day. Missy has since opened a second restaurant, Misi, that focuses primarily on pasta. She also has a new venture called Misi Pasta, a high-quality Italian boutique grocery store, where she also sells her fresh, handmade pasta, that she plans to expand in the coming years.Produced by Dear MediaSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
