Eat your veggies and eat them well, with options. That is what Veg Edible works to bring to you and we are bringing owners Stacie Van Cleave and Matt Hyde to you! Stacie moved to a vegan diet to address health concerns and then moved to provide that food to others. They now have a brick and mortar location which has been the next step in the evolution of their efforts to provide a gluten free, nut free, meat free, dairy free menu that tastes delicious to Omaha. I can tell you this, the s’mores cake they have…..whoa.

Hyper-local, this is a word that I heard on National Hot Dog Day back in 2022 and that term was heard from the voice of Ryan Barry of Willie Dogs. At that time Wille Dogs was a cart/popup concept focusing on creating a hot dog to represent Omaha. Since that time Ryan has gone to culinary school, kept the cart going, and more recently opened a brick and mortar location. He has continued to focus on using local ingredients to make his food embracing his concept of hyperlocal and love for his city of Omaha and he’s on our show!
