Rocco DiSpirito on Shy Chef Secrets & Why Cookbooks Are Still Special

Chef Rocco DiSpirito reminisces on his time as an executive chef in the early nineties and how reviews and critics could make or break an establishment. Rocco talks about how social media has leveled the restaurant review playing field and how the New York City food landscape has evolved over the past few decades. He talks about his early food memories and the honest, hardworking upbringing with his family that led to his first job selling Italian ice. Rocco shares how the role of a chef has evolved and why he hired a coach to guide him through interactions with customers in his restaurants. He talks about starting therapy in elementary school and why everyone needs a trained therapist in their life. Rocco reveals why he loves creating cookbooks so much after authoring fourteen and why, even with the internet and social media, cookbooks remain special. He talks about his friendship with Guy Fieri, how they met, and why he loves filming together on Guy’s shows. Rocco talks about how intense the blind judging is on Tournament of Champions and how he has to wait to find out who cooked the dishes he loved.
