Getting Curious About Food: a conversation with Chef Katie Button about her food journey and new show “From the Source” (Season 2: Episode 1)
Description
In today’s episode, I talk with Chef, restaurateur, cookbook author and now host of her own show - Katie Button. We talk about her early influences in cooking, the restaurant that she co-owns with her husband Felix in Asheville - Curate and, of course, her new show on the Magnolia network, From the Source.
I reached out to Katie after I watched the first season of her show because i was drawn to her enthusiasm and really enjoyed the attention that she brought to the people growing and producing the ingredients she loved to cook with. It’s a fun conversation with Katie whose energy is as infectious as her curiosity is compelling.
Katie Button is the JBFA-nominated co-founder and CEO of Asheville, NC’s beloved Cúrate, a collection of restaurants, online marketplace, wine club and culinary journeys designed to create exceptional and experiential access to Spanish culture. Before opening Cúrate Bar de Tapas in 2011 with husband Felix Meana, Katie honed her craft in the kitchens of some of the world’s best chefs. With over a decade of bringing the flavors and culinary traditions of Spain to guests, the Cúrate brand now includes La Bodega by Cúrate, Cúrate Trips, and Cúrate at Home and Cúrate Spanish Wine Club.
You can watch her show on the Magnolia Network or on Discovery plus.
