After high school, Maupin toyed with the idea of enlisting in the military but instead enrolled at the University of Cincinnati, studying aerospace engineering before switching to nutritional science. He also worked at the local Sam's Club warehouse store, stocking shelves. "He still works here," manager Mitch Cohen says. "He's just on a military leave of absence, and his job will be here for him when he returns." There's a tabletop display about Maupin at the front of the store, one of several in the area.

The restaurant serves up flavorful cuisine, mostly to locals but also to a few intense food hounds who have somehow heard of Rovera. Everything served is grown, produced or foraged (as with the truffles) by the members of her cooperative. Rovera is also mother hen to many local organic-wine producers who are not well known but top-notch. Ask her to set up some visits...
