Food, Farms, & Chefs: Interviews with Tim Pervizi, Kevin Halim, & Darren Oakley

55:42

We appreciate all of our Food, Farms, & Chefs Family for supporting and listening throughout the years, and as we take a break to celebrate the Holiday Season with our families we wanted to share one of your favorite episodes with all of you again. So please enjoy our wonderful guests, and if you can find time to visit them–I’m sure that they would love to see you just as much as we do!

On that note, for your listening pleasure:

We’re starting our show with Chef Tim Pervizi and owner of Heirloom in Doylestown, PA! Chef Tim Pervizi considers that all knowledge and talents are an Heirloom that is passed on from mentors and colleagues, and in that spirit he has become proficient in his own culinary talents under some highly acclaimed Chefs, including David Pasternack, a James Beard Award Winning Chef, and Food and Wine’s Best New Chefs, Missy Robbins and even attaining his skills by acknowledging the differences in how every kitchen is run. He will take us on a wonderful look into his own culinary background, and lead us to his present day experiences, including how he is currently running Heirloom to be “In the Now.”

Later, we hear from the husband team and owners of Kelly‘s Bakery, Chef Kevin Halim and Darrin Oakley, who also joined us in-studio with their barista aficionado, Joanna. You will get to hear how Kevin Halim found his own path in life by becoming a Chef, and how he used his talents during the pandemic to hone in on his bread-making skills. You’ll also learn how this amazing duo founded their successful business through a brilliant idea that Darrin came up with, leading to the now popular bakery in Poughkeepsie, NY.
