That’s amore!
Julian Barsotti is a bustle of energy and passion. Just the qualities the talented young chef, restaurant owner and father of three requires to keep all his spinning plates (or hand made dough) airborne. His effervescent and wildly popular Nonna is celebrating 10 years winning hearts and appetites. Carbone’s and Sprezza are tantalizing Italian food lovers with different flavor profiles, and he’s about to open an “old school” New York inspired “red sauce joint” named Fachini in Highland Park Village as part of a very creative partnership with Nick Badovinus. Dig in. The conversation with “Jules” is fun. Buon appetito! “Wining and Dining with Jim White” is the podcast devoted to introducing you to the people who create the eats and drinks you love. Catch all of our episodes on VOKALnow.com and on iTunes. And, remember. If anybody asks you what you’re making for dinner…tell ’em reservations!

Magical Mendoza Malbec
Tatiana Nessier and Jim White
Take a tasting excursion with us to Argentina and meet two of the friendliest wine pros around on this week’s “Wining and Dining with Jim White” on VOKALnow.com. Sevy’s restaurant was the backdrop as we tasted Mendoza’s nectar of the gods, Malbec from Alamos Wines and Don Miguel Gascon. Tatiana Nessier may have the best job in the world as a high-flying, fun loving brand ambassador for the high altitude wines of Alamos. Winemaker Matias Ciciani from Don Miguel Gascon is the third generation of winemakers in his family and literally was born a block away from the winery where he works today! Find out about the joyous Argentine cultural celebration of wine and foods called Asado, and discover some delicious wines. It’s on the program devoted to introducing you to the women and men who create the flavors you love. Check out all our episodes on

Top o’ the morning to you
Jim White and Chef Tom Fleming
Tom Fleming is our guest this week on “Wining and Dining with Jim White” on VOKAL. Tom agrees with Auguste Escoffier’s judgment that the egg is the most difficult food to cook correctly. As a classically trained chef, Fleming is serious not only about the egg, but every other ingredient (mostly made from scratch) he serves for breakfast and lunch at his Crossroads Diner. It’s the quintessential family operation that he and wife Karen run with a little help from their daughters (when they’re not in school). It’s their “Plan B”, as Tom calls it, in case his bright young ladies ever need a fallback career opportunity. Someone’s been cooking (seriously if not professionally) in Tom’s family for almost a century. Find out how Tom was introduced to the craft, how he faced his personal crossroads, and his views on how the Dallas-Fort Worth dining scene has changed since he arrived here 20 years ago from Chicago, fresh off a James Beard “Best New Restaurant” win. It’s the podcast devoted to the people who make the eats and drinks you love. Catch all of our episodes on iTunes and at VOKALnow.com.
And, remember: If anybody asks you what you’re making for dinner, tell ’em RESERVATIONS!

It’s the podcast devoted to bringing you stories about the people who make the eats and drinks you love. You can catch all of our episodes on iTunes and on VOKALnow.com.
