Journeys of Discovery: A conversation with Arkansas culinary wizard Scott McGehee

Join correspondent Tom Wilmer in Little Rock, Arkansas as Scott McGehee shares tales of his passion for food. His lifelong love of the culinary arts started with his mom and that led to an incredible and transformative stint in Alice Water’s kitchen at Chez Panisse in Berkeley, California.

Today, McGehee is a partner in Little Rock based Yellow Rocket Concepts with a growing array of eateries, including Big Orange, Local Lime and the Lost Forty Brewpub.

Wilmer met up with McGehee at Yellow Rockets’ Heights Taco & Tamale Company. Come along and join McGehee as he shares his incredible passion for all things culinary.
