Sedalia’s is a project born out of love for the restaurant-industry that brought my husband & I together & being able to create spaces that do not exist in our city quite yet. Food & family have a strong place in our hearts, one that we are proud to share with you today. Zack and I come from very different backgrounds; but our love for the kitchen-life, dining rooms and the mentors & colleagues that shaped our lives will always unite us.

Zack is from Oklahoma and has worked his way in the industry from his culinary school days in San Francisco to owning his restaurant in Hollywood called Salt’s Cure; a project that he and his chef-partner nurtured & grew to the well reviews from LA times Irene Virbilia to the late Jonathan Gold. His approach to California cuisine, nose-to-tail animal butchery also earned him a spot in the NY magazine review by the late Josh Ozersky & the WSJ. His infinite passion for simple, honest cooking has brought him back home. Zack hopes to be able to create a relationship with the city & small chef-run spaces to further the narrative that is Oklahoma City today. On his “off” time he enjoys listening to Jazz, sipping wine, cooking, reading & spending time with his favorite duo…August & Guinness!

I was born in Cochabamba, Bolivia; My parents and I migrated to the US when I was thirteen years old. After settling into our new home in Northern Virginia, I started working in restaurants to afford a trip to NYC. Once I fell in love with the city of dreams, I grew stronger in my passion for food and the way it unites people from all walks of life. Restaurants are very beautiful, unique places. Not to over romanticize them but they breath life into every neighborhood, they create a gathering place for diversion, nourishment & memories. I have been very fortunate to have worked in a variety of establishments and engaged with some of the best mentors/service professionals types. My hope is to be able to create a space in our community that provides some of the warmth, authenticity and integrity that some of the best places provide. I have so much gratitude in my heart for OKC; the way we’ve been received has been with open arms, kind words and appreciation! we couldn’t ask for more. I thoroughly enjoy meeting people, connecting, learning, EATING & laughing. My days are filled with my sweet boys August & our dog-child, Guinness. I am mainly in charge of our Social Media handle/reservations/questions/anything! so feel free to reach out. Say hi if you see me at Sedalia’s - Silvana
