Faturday Omaha

Food for your ears! It all started with lunch, Faturday lunch where good friends Sam, Dave, and TJ would catch up on things and eat amazing food. One meal led to another and the Faturday Omaha podcast and now radio show on 91.5 KIOS FM, was born starting in 2018. The Faturday team has been recognized by NP Dodge as a “16 Omaha Podcasts You Should Be Listening To” We look to provide you with insight into great places to eat, see how they rank on our the Frampton Scale (for Faturday epicness), talk with restaurant owners/chefs/staff, entertain, and hopefully make you laugh!

    Startups and Pop-ups The Commissary Kitchen at No More Empty Pots

    Ok, ok, I may have been a bit greedy when seeking our guests on the show today. I’ve become quite curious on how cottage food production and pop-ups differ with rules and certifications etc. Additionally, our local food trucks and industry folks brought No More Empty Pots to my attention. We’ve had CEO Talia McGill on the show before to give us an overview of No More Empty pots. This episode also features Alisha Waugh who is the Kitchen Coordinator of No More Empty Pots’ commissary kitchen. She so kindly addressed all of my questions and I look forward to you listening to our conversation and adding new knowledge to your repertoire.      Hang on to your fork, stay right where you are and Faturday will be right back. Get ready to connect with food!

    Sarah Baker Hansen Food Cost Rise

    Sarah Baker Hansen recently wrote an article for the Flat Water Free Press titled “As food costs rise, local restaurants — and diners who support them — adjust to paying more” At a time when we’ve seen a lot of restaurant closures, this article might just ring true with a lot of owners and diners. Coincidentally, just hours before we went in studio a noted local restaurant that was even featured on Food Network announced it was closing.  We talked about the article, the varied factors affecting restaurants, and more including a local spot serving soup dumplings.  Hang on to your fork and listen if you’re hungry. !
