David Kupperberg Email and Phone Number
I am a seasoned chef with more than a decade of experience working in New York City restaurants. Well versed in classical and modern culinary techniques, I specialize in the use of high quality, seasonal, health-supportive, and whole-food ingredients, with a particular focus on Neapolitan pizza making.I have experience as a restaurant consultant, concepting, planning, and creating menus for new establishments. Additionally, I have an extensive background as an art historian, copywriter, and marketing creative for online and offline publications and integrated marketing campaigns. All of these experiences have given me the ability to approach challenges in the culinary field with a critical perspective and to communicate ideas in a clear and direct manner. Whether it be recipe writing, restaurant concepting, menu development, or even staff training, I have always sought to incorporate a holistic view of a brand or an idea that extends to every area of execution.
