Live! From Jasper's Kitchen
Popular Local Chef Hosts Radio Show
Presented by The Hen House Markets
Kansas City, Mo. - Jasper Mirabile, Jr., renowned chef at the popular Italian restaurant that bears his and his father's name, hosts a weekly radio show on KCMO 710 AM radio Saturday mornings at 11 AM.



I haven't talked much lately about my good friend, Jasper Mirabile. He has a wonderful radio program on every Saturday morning at 11am that is full of information about food, Italian food in particular, restaurants in Kansas City, travel, the Slow Foods organization and what is happening in the Kansas City area. He has great guests and terrific topics. Tune in to hear the latest in food news!


Jasper and I collaborated on a dinner held at his restaurant. We called it "Pig 101..From Snout to Tail". I loved the experience! Jasper also attends our harvest events, at leastone each harvest season. He says being at the Somerset Ridge Vineyard for harvest is just like being in Italy! I agree!
