Chef Cari Jo Cavalcante, Part 2: Hiding the liver and onions and loving Thomas Keller
Chef Cari Jo Cavalcante, the owner of the Bloomsbury Bistro, has made Kansas City her home the past three decades, and she’s glad that the world is finally catching on to all that the city has to offer.
“Kansas City is just a great town. It’s been interesting to be here 30 years. The other night, I was coming home from a meeting and I saw the downtown skyline. It’s changed so much since I lived here. It’s nice that we’re really getting more recognition for our food,” Cavalcante says.
On Wednesday, she talked about her dream of becoming a sportscaster and what led her to the bistro space in Prairie Village. Tomorrow, she’ll share the story behind the “Paris plates.” Today, she’s diving into all of the things she loves and hates in the kitchen.
