  1. HUGE, HUGE, HUGE FAN! I think the first thing I saw you (and liked you) in was “From the Hip”. And of course I loved you in your other projects like Living Color, Chocolate News, Boomerang, and all of your ACE appearances! If you’re cool, I’d love to feature your blog on my site – bloggerdise.com

    Thanks,

    Jesse Cohen

  2. I heard you talking about your blog on the Wendy Williams Show and was happy to hear that there are celebrities out there who enjoy the side project of food blogging as much as I do. Thanks for contributing to the food blog world!

  3. Hello David!

    I was wondering whether you’d be interested in being interviewed for actress Lynn Chen’s food blog, The Actor’s Diet. It would really be fantastic to feature you on the blog! The pork potstickers look absolutely delicious, by the way!

    Thank you so much,

  4. Just saw you on The Chew. You mentioned that you like to cure meats. Do you have a trusty reference that you use and can recommend? I have wanted to start but have no idea where to get good information on it. Thanks!

      I’d go out and buy Michael Ruhlman’s – Charcuterie: The Craft of Salting, Smoking and Curing.

      Great book for learning the in’s & out’s. There is also great websites, like egullet which is a discussion forum where you can ask questions and read through other ppl’s experience to help you on your curing journey. It’s intimidating before you start, but once you start getting your hands dirty you’ll get a feel for it. Good luck and have a blast making bacon…once you make it yourself (correctly lol) you’ll be in love. Bacon is a nice starter project to build confidence.

  5. Cephus!! (….okay sorry I had to get that out, lol)

    Super dope you have a food blog. Food is the great equalizer. I am so fortunate to have grown up with the likes of you, Tommy, Damon, Keenan and the rest of the cast as comedic influences. So underrated, but real always recognize real.

    Now you’re cooking…I’d imagine it’s much like being on stage, improvising when you have to, the emotions, the cast of characters (ingredients) which you can’t always rely on to be in character (flavor). I imagine my cooking to be an …off off off Broadway play, lol.

    Glad I caught wind of this blog, my sister say you on the Chew and hipped me to it. Will check out what you got going on here, and look forward to your future contributions.

  6. Wow, absolutely love the fact that you are into food. I love your work, you are truly a master of your craft. I look at your blog and I’m amazed by the caliber of your cooking. I wish I could make some of the dishes you are preparing. Living in a small city in Michigan a lot of thing just are not available to me and 3 kids and a husband mean I have to be very frugal but I digress and simply leave with this. Love your work, your food looks amazing and leaves me inspired you are without a doubt one of the greats! Looking forward to more.
