Simple Food. Big Feels.

Hi, I’m Frank, better known as Dough Daddy.

By day, I’m a Certified Financial Planner. But by night (and weekends, and most waking hours if we’re being honest), I’m a food-obsessed dad, BBQ judge, and pizza evangelist with a camera, a cast iron pan, and a serious love for good eats.

Dough Daddy Cooks is my way of bringing people together through food, whether it’s a humble bowl of pasta, a next-level Italian beef in Chicago, or a Michelin-star tasting menu that makes you rethink everything you thought you knew about carrots. It’s not about fancy techniques or chef-y perfection. It’s about heart, humor, and sharing the kinds of meals that make you pause, smile, and maybe loosen your belt a notch.

Here you’ll find:

• 🍕 Cooking videos that teach you how to cook like a hero for your family (and maybe win some dad points while you’re at it)

• 🔥 Restaurant reviews from hole-in-the-walls to haute cuisine, always honest, always hungry

• 🍝 Stories, culture, and history that bring recipes to life and remind us that food is more than fuel, it’s connection

You’ll also meet The Slice Mob, a crew of lifelong friends eating their way through the best pizza joints in America, one slice at a time. (CT pride, baby.)

So whether you’re a seasoned home cook, a weekend grill warrior, or someone who just really, really loves a good meatball, welcome. Pull up a chair. Let’s eat.
