Location: Bentonville, AK Restaurant: Eleven. Alice Walton was just recently named "the world's richest woman." Her father, Sam Walton, started with one five-and-dime store in rural Arkansas and grew it into one of the most successful business stories of all time: Walmart. His only daughter, Alice, has used her immense wealth for philanthropic endeavors her entire life but it wasn't until she really leaned into her personal passion that her life changed so dramatically. On November 11, 2011, Alice opened the Crystal Bridges Art Museum in Bentonville, Arkansas, bringing a world-class art museum to a corner of the world that had never seen anything like it. Alice has continued her mission to champion art for rural areas with her Art Bridges Foundation and Alice L. Walton Foundation. From a table at Eleven, her favorite restaurant in Bentonville, Alice shares her incredible journey as part of one of the world's richest families and why art is her North star and why she believes so passionately in the ability of art to heal and inspire.

About To Dine for with Kate Sullivan:

If you ask someone to name their favorite restaurant, you're likely to get a revealing answer.

TO DINE FOR WITH KATE SULLIVAN uses this very question as a foundation for a conversation with an array of bright and innovative minds.

In this new series, four-time Emmy Award-winning journalist Kate Sullivan accompanies 10 different guests to their favorite restaurants.

They experience the atmosphere, the location, the ambience, and eat what they love.

Over dinner, Kate's guests - entrepreneurs, change agents, musicians, actors, newsmakers and others - discuss their early lives, their struggles, their successes, the American dream, and how they have tried to achieve it.

This season, Kate travels to Seattle to meet with Howard Schultz, CEO of Starbucks.

While there they dine at Mamnoon, a Middle Eastern restaurant known for flavors so good "they'll make you cry." Then, she flies to Chicago to visit with Nike designer Jason Mayden, who grew up on the South Side of the city.

Jason takes her to Giordano's Deep Dish pizza to tell her why he loves Chicago, and how it fueled his imagination and dreams.
