Leave it to Patty to bring yet another big name on the show for a fascinating discussion about one of the most popular Food Network shows of all time. Broadcast news veteran and food journalist David Page shares his career journey from investigating journalism to food journalism. He talks about his experiences developing and producing the show 'Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives' and explains how the show came into existence. It would seem that the recipe included 2 parts Real World Experience and 1 part Fake it 'til You Make It.The conversation also delves into his book 'Food Americana', which traces the history and evolution of various American dishes. David also talks about his next book project which will focus on the food culture that exists away from traditional eating spots, like ballpark food and food trucks.
