Mrs. Angie McCartney's Teas

One fun part of multi-artist events is seeing old friends. Another is getting to say hello to artists you’ve long admired and never met.

Here’s Jeremy Clyde with Colin Blunstone, the voice of The Zombies. Both Colin and Jeremy are on this year’s Flower Power Cruise, currently at sea on its way to Curaçao.

Join Dr. Angie McCartney (aka The World’s Oldest Podcaster®) and daughter Ruth for Tuesday at 11:30am Pacific time on March 31, 2026.

Today’s guest is Chef Javier Becerra, Executive Chef and co-founder of Xolo Bar in Houston’s Montrose district.

Born in Mexico City, Chef Becerra began his culinary journey in the family kitchen, where tradition and technique were passed down through generations. After an early career as a commercial lawyer, he made the bold decision to pursue his passion for food, bringing discipline and precision into the culinary world.

He trained at the Culinary Institute LeNôtre in Houston and quickly rose through the ranks at top restaurants including BCN Taste & Tradition and MAD Houston. His global journey has taken him across Mexico, to Tokyo as an Executive Chef, and to Barcelona where he trained in molecular gastronomy.

As Executive Chef of Degust, he led a tasting menu experience that earned national recognition from Esquire Magazine as one of the Best New Restaurants in America.

Now, at Xolo Bar, Chef Becerra brings together heritage, innovation, and global technique to create a bold, modern interpretation of Mexican cuisine.
