LOMA Executive Chef Daniel Hernandez is from Mexico City and made his way to the states to work construction. He very quickly found his way into a kitchen in Missouri, where he started in the dish pit... he worked his way up to the line, and eventually to running the whole thing, and that took over a decade.

He eventually found his way here to Northwest Arkansas, and he’ll tell you how he got here.

And if you’re a Gen-Xer like me, you’ll love to hear what his first job was, and you may have actually done it yourself back in the day.

Chef Hernandez describes his food, and we’ll walk through some menu items. Also, what was it that hooked him in to cooking?? Listen wherever you listen to podcasts or watch on YouTube!
