Ronnie Woo talks cookbook ‘Did You Eat Yet?’; being gay, Asian
qvoicenews.comRonnie Woo had an unconventional path to becoming a chef and TV food personality. A former model, he went on to earn a master’s in marriage and family therapy and an MBA before launching a private chef company, the Delicious Cook, which prepares delicious dishes for some of Hollywood’s biggest stars.
But Woo hasn’t forgotten his roots. His new cookbook, “Did You Eat Yet?: Craveable Recipes From an All-American Asian Chef,” combines flavors from his American upbringing and Asian heritage for a taste that is truly all-American.
Just ask his husband, Doug. As Woo details to Out, good food makes for a good relationship. And on a broader scale, it can even push back against prejudice. Out: What inspired you to launch the Delicious Cook, your L.A.-based private chef company? Ronnie Woo: As cheesy as this sounds, my husband, Doug, was the inspiration behind my pursuit of food.
I’ve always loved food, but for the longest time, my perspective of what constituted a career was pretty narrow. And after meeting Doug, who always encouraged me to do what made me happy, that all changed.
