David Burke
Corporate Executive Chef
New York Restaurant Group, New York City

“The versatility of potatoes is one reason they blend perfectly into American cooking.  The size, shape and quality of Idaho Potatoes lends them to more creativity and enables me to be more imaginative.”

“What do I like about Idaho® potatoes? What don’t I like? The quality and the versatility are unbelievable, and the creative freedom with a potato is great. Leave me alone on a deserted island, give me a potato and I’m a happy guy. A bottle of wine wouldn’t hurt too.”

“Idaho® potatoes promise the consistency I count on to deliver the creativity and ‘wow’ factor that characterize my menus. As a side, soup, center-of-the-plate component or snack, they help build any chef’s reputation.”

“The versatility of potatoes is one reason they blend perfectly into American cooking. The size, shape and quality of Idaho® potatoes lends them to more creativity and enables me to be more imaginative.”

“Idaho® potatoes are consistent, delicious and versatile. Thy can be used for just about everything; soups, potato chips, bbq potato flakes, fries, shoe-strings, gnocchi and German potato dumplings.”
