He learned both from a very young age--when his parents would let him, he would cook dinner for his family. Chef Dempsey attended college for commercial art and worked in the field for several years, but the lure of the culinary arts was too strong and he returned to his childhood love, beginning at Maumelle Country Club. His excellent work \u0026amp; eye for design turned heads and soon he was working at Ristorante Capeo. He has been head chef at E's bistro, the Arkansas Surgical Hospital, and the Russellville public school district. He is now the Executive Chef of the Arkansas Governor's Mansion.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eChef Ken is married to an AMAZING woman and has a fiery, red-headed daughter to keep him on his toes!  When in the kitchen, he thinks of my grandma Faye the most. He remembers her hands full of dough making biscuits, her sifting through beans to make sure there were no rocks, the smell of cornbread in the oven, and the taste of her perfect sweat tea. He hopes she is proud of him; we are sure she is!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eggshells Kitchen Co.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53537239072981,"sku":null,"price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0154\/9851\/files\/henry-perks-hbpQoTORhQg-unsplash.jpg?v=1774901110","url":"https:\/\/www.eggshellskitchencompany.com\/products\/6-18-26-handmade-ravioli-with-chef-ken-dempsey","provider":"Eggshells Kitchen Co.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
