About the Chef
Dave Klopfenstein is a life-long cooking enthusiast and author of the blog Dave’s Kitchen (www.daveskitchen.com). As a child, even though he refused to eat any vegetable, he somehow developed a love of cooking, specializing in grilled cheese sandwiches and recipes containing Lipton’s onion soup mix. Since then he’s spent much of his time amusing himself in the kitchen, studying recipes, discovering ingredients and learning new techniques. He often produces dishes he calls “Mexican” or “Persian” or “Italian,” though his pot-roast influenced, Midwestern upbringing prohibits any claim of authenticity over these cuisines
Dave has also written for the Epicurious Epi-log blog. During workdays he moonlights as a digital project manager for Conde Nast Publications. He looks forward to some day having a garden that’s too big to fit on his windowsill.
