Kahja interviews Chef Matt Horn
What does it mean to build? What does it mean to serve? Whatever it means, Chef Matt Horn understood the assignment and got busy leveraging his memories of barbecue and studied the process of creating it, eventually transforming those learnings into the launch of Horn Barbecue and a career as a restauranteur that would go on to include two additional concepts; Kowbird and Matty's Old Fashioned.
This week, Kahja talks with Matt about the road from pop-ups to opening three restaurants in just over three years, curating spaces where hospitality is the main focus, the ups and downs that come with highly visible success, and honoring tradition by pushing the envelope.
