Fiore Tedesco is the Austin chef behind beloved Italian institution L’Oca d’Oro and the brand-new pizza joint Bambino. But funnily enough, it was music that helped bring him back to cooking. Tedesco was a touring drummer for years, sharing bills with Delta Spirit and backing up famed L.A. punk Kid Congo Powers. A tour with Powers took Tedesco across Europe and reignited his passion for his family’s Italian cooking. Now he’s one of Austin’s best chefs, co-owning two restaurants and raising money for Good Work Austin.
This week on My KUTX, Tedesco is our guest DJ. His personal playlist runs from tour stories with Delta Spirit, picking Bryan Ferry for his wedding playlist, jamming out to Phoenix on KUTX, and more. Hear Fiore Tedesco’s My KUTX on Saturday, March 23 at 6 p.m. or listen anytime right here.
