Meet the Owner
Kalyn McAlister
Kalyn grew up learning her great-grandmother's recipes for sweet yeast bread, tea cookies, strawberry cake, among other delights. Under the tutelage of her grandmother, mother, and aunt, she found a fondness for baking and how food brings people together. In 2012, Kalyn was the opening baker for Kitchen 324 in Oklahoma City, working 3 am to 11 am. Kalyn has also worked as a caterer for events such as birthdays, graduations, and weddings, providing baked sweets as well as charcuterie boards. Jasper's Cafe and Lounge is gesture of Kalyn's love for culinary delights and experiences.
Why Tulsa?
In 2007, Linsey Stern, Kalyn's best friend and slated Jasper's kitchen manager, moved to Tulsa. Since that time, Kalyn has spent at least a weekend every month exploring Tulsa's neighborhoods and ogling the Art Deco buildings with her Tulsa bestie. Kalyn loves the community spirit of Tulsa and the desire to support local artists, restaurants, and stores. Jasper's Cafe & Lounge embodies all of this: a passion for food, reverence for friendship (over tea or cocktails), and dedication to supporting local farms.
