It's rare that I sit down with an operator or chef and don't know anything about their backstory, but such was the case with Provision Concepts founder and CEO Jeff Dixon. To be clear, I've known him for more than a decade but we've always just talked business, so I was very curious to hear about his upbringing. (Weatherford? Weatherford. Who is from Weatherford?) Once we get the bio, including his history with Hal Smith Restaurants, we get to what is clearly one of the more successful hospitality companies in the state, one that will shortly be in four states: Oklahoma, Colorado (already open), Texas (this year), and Arizona (this year). He has new openings in Tulsa later this year, but he also has much good to say about OKC's urban core and the corner where it all started.
