MEET THE CHEF:
Jason Paul is the chef and co-owner of both Heirloom at the 1907 and Pinky Swear. Both are located in historic Downtown Rogers, Arkansas. Jason began cooking professionally at a young age in Phoenix, Arizona which is where he was born and raised. From there he worked in restaurants in Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Maine, and for the last 10 years here in Northwest Arkansas. Jason was also an instructor at Brightwater: A Center For The Study Of Food before reopening Heirloom at the 1907 in 2019. When he’s not cooking he enjoys hanging out with his 3 dogs and working in his yard, or finding cool records for the Pinky Swear record collection.
MEET THE INFLUENCERS:
NWA Newbies (@nwa.newbies), Riley Way and Grace Anderson, began their platform as a creative outlet from their corporate finance day jobs with the goal of helping their friends and family get acquainted with Northwest Arkansas. Quickly those goals expanded to include things such as building a community of people, hosting events, and partnering with and supporting businesses across the region. Their meetups, giveaways, and curated social media posts have turned a shared hobby into a blossoming network where locals and visitors can connect and celebrate everything NWA has to offer.
