Chef David Burke is one of the most prominent chefs in New York City 鈥 he's operated and consulted on more than a dozen restaurants across the country 鈥 and that鈥檚 for a good reason. Trained at the Culinary Institute of America and Ecole Lenotre Pastry School in Plaisir, France, David built his career by asking why. The acclaimed chef's culinary voice is all about asking the simplest culinary questions, like 鈥渨hy do we serve apples with pork鈥, oranges with duck, and put a pickle on a hamburger.鈥 This, he believes, creates the necessary foundation for cooks and chefs to explore their culinary curiosity.
David鈥檚 approach as a 鈥渧oice of reason鈥, constantly asking questions and challenging the answers, is what led to his success as a chef and restaurateur.
