Postero

JASON is a native son, raised in Hendersonville, NC, with a deep-seeded passion for food from an early age. He can still recall of some of his earliest food memories being chased from his grandmothers kitchen for pilfering bacon, sharing a love of Asian ingredientswith his mother, and his fathers roast beast and Yorkshire pudding every Christmas. These memories have helped shape his love of grub. After pursuing a culinary education and working in the field, Jason returned home to Hendersonville in 2000. He and his wife, Stephanie, consider raising their two beautiful children, Paityn and Cole (a.k.a., Pickle & Bean), their greatest journey and highest achievement. STEPHANIE was born just over the state line in Spartanburg, SC. But after graduating high school, Hendersonville would become her new home. She then went on to attend Western Carolina to get her degree in Sport Management and put her love of people to work. She eventually moved back to Hendersonville after meeting Jason on a blind date set up by her sister (thanks, sis!). Now after 12 years as the Golf Shop Manager at Champion Hills, Stephanie is jumping into the restaurant game. She brings a wealth of customer service expertise to the table, along with a desire to see Jasons dream succeed. Together they make the perfect pairing. JUSTIN began working in the restaurant industry when he was just fifteen years old. With a strong desire to explore the food world, he quickly became immersed in the kitchen. After deciding to pursue a culinary career, he took a job as a dishwasher and quickly worked his way up to becoming a line cook. He cooked his way through various restaurants in his younger years, ultimately earning a Culinary Arts degree at The Culinary Institute of America. Prior to his position at Postero, Justin was the Executive Chef at Miss Lucys Kitchen in Saugerties, NY. He now resides in Asheville with his wife Christine, daughter Wren, and their dog Keebler.
