Dave Lieberman Working on New Webisodes
Tuesday, July 11, 2006 | posted by Mike
I like Dave Lieberman. I like him because he’s young, he’s fun, he’s energetic and (like me) he’s a Philly guy. I do have to give him a hard time about including fontina cheese and red onions in his Cheesesteak recipe, though. I'm giving him three trips to Tony Luke’s as penance.By the way…the Tony Luke’s site makes a reference to the recent Geno’s English-only sign brouhaha. If you want a great summary of the silliness of Geno’s owner Joe Vento’s point, check out this post at PhilaFoodie. Whatever your politics -- and for purely taste reasons -- you should be going to Tony Luke’s, not Geno’s.
OK, back to Dave. Last year saw the debut of the first Web-based series staring Dave Lieberman, “Eat This with Dave Lieberman.” Now, they’re working on “Dave Does,” which will be free-wheeling and ad libbed, according to this article in The Oregonian. His conversational style and engaging personality should be a nice draw for the younger audience you would expect from a Web-based series.
Good to see that the Food Network is embracing new delivery methods for their programming.
