Welcome to the Savor Newark Podcast — where food, culture, wellness, and entrepreneurship meet.

In this episode, we sit down with Jason Wallace, owner of Just Delicious Sandwich Shop, Alletante Restaurant, and Katherine’s, and a proud graduate of the Culinary Institute of America.

Jason shares his journey from formal culinary training to building three beloved Newark establishments, the discipline and creativity shaped by his education, and what it takes to sustain and grow hospitality businesses in Newark.

From sandwiches to elevated dining, he breaks down the hustle, heart, and leadership required to thrive in the city’s evolving food scene. Savor Newark is a weekly conversation series celebrating local small business owners, chefs, wellness professionals, and community leaders — amplifying authentic voices and positioning Newark as one of America’s most culturally rich food cities.
