Episode 199 - Aaron Lopez - Ursa

Today I had the please of talking to owner and chef at Ursa, chef Aaron Lopez. We talked about what it was like growing up in Calexico and how food was never something he envisioned himself doing as a career but at the same time his artist side has helped him be creative in the kitchen as well. Aaron left Calexico pretty much right after high school and spent the last 20 years working in Los Angeles, Hawaii and Austin working in fine dinning restaurants. During his stay in Austin he and his wife had some time to travel and they spent it exploring the Southwest and this is where Ursa became an idea that 5 years later became a thing.
