About the episode

Dave sits down with Alison Roman, whom he has known since the early days of Milk Bar, as her new cookbook, Something From Nothing, comes out soon. They reminisce on the old days before they talk about how Alison made a path for herself and worked hard for a long time before becoming an “overnight success.” The duo also discusses creating a personal style, how difficult it can be to mature in the public eye, and the process of actually making a cookbook. Dave closes with an Ask Dave about Momofuku ramen.
