Mc Donald’s was new in my city of 80,000 people - we loved it as high schoolers, supper clubs owned by locals were dinner with the family and a Chinese restaurant owned by a classmates’s family was a really special night out. Diners were amazing. I miss it all.

Don’t continue this expertise challenge. You won’t do any of it just like the diets and other group challenges. You can’t even answer questions respectfully. I’ll still listen and support your shows, products and books. But let’s stop this one now.

Great show.

Dave, Sheetz is where it’s at. Also Herr’s Red Hot chips are always the best options. Sheetz is now selling a chip that is air dried. Super crisp, salty, and the perfect size bag. When are you coming to Pittsburgh to sample our restaurants?……

Love the pod! I’ve learned so much about food, cooking and the hospitality industry. I’ve been an avid listener for many years and love everything you guys put out! Keep doing what you do and I’ll be here for it! * To those coming here for the hate, please listen to the April 12, 2024 episode titled, “Discussing Momofuku Chili Crunch…”. Dave explains his side of things so well. Tough situation that he handled with class. Take care, and I hope you can find what makes you happy. ❤️ Love to Dave and the entire Momofuku team❤️❤️

lol come on chef. They’re all in the feed already. Make new content or pause. Yes chef?

You are getting a one for failing to acknowledge Andy Ricker. Dave Arnold gets five stars.

I thought you might enjoy some songs from a couple of super early Fleet Mac records…. From Kiln House there are some really good ones… my favorites are Station Man, Jewel Eye Judy, and Earl Gray. The album called Then Play On has some cool stuff like Searching For Madge and Coming Your Way and Although The Sun Is Shining. Love you and Chris and all that you do! Your show is great!!

this guy is a total ahole and he totally know what he is wrong doing but he still does

As a practicing trademark attorney and ardent fan of all things food here. The way Dave and his team responded to the chili crunch trademark controversy in last Friday’s episode was a masterstroke. To those who don’t know how the system works, it’s a good insight into the flaws of the trademark system and all of the comments about Dave being a “bully” could not be more unfounded. Refusing to enforce the mark at potentially great peril to your business shows you have actual skin in the game and care deeply about the AAPI community — something none of your larger competitors would do. To everyone belly-aching about how the Momofuku team has handled it, I’ll put it In simple terms: Basically, the Momofuku Team just picked up a five-to-six figure tab (worth of legal fees) at dinner, and everyone who ate is complaining that Dave Chang didn’t pull out his credit card fast enough. If anything, the angry mobs trying to hurt his business are the real bullies. The Momofuku team and Mr. Chang should be commended for rightfully following the procedures of trademark law, picking up the tab on legal fees, and allowing any business to use the mark. This was a thoroughly principled response and Momofuku, Mr. Chang and his team will always have my respect for this. To everyone hurling abuse at Chang and his team in these reviews: Inform yourselves of what just happened here. A move like this from a company is extremely rare.
