Dimitri is a writer, producer and director who I’ve had the pleasure to meet and work with two years ago. I was first approached by Dimitri, who follows this blog about shooting a cooking demo. We agreed that the cooking segment should take place during my summer vacation in Greece and that we would test the waters out with the video.
Dimitri and his cast crew worked with me for a whole day on capturing three recipes, one of which you can see on the right side bar of this blog. Dimitri is passionate about all his projects and from what I remember of the long day of filming, he kept his eye on the ball and focused on the project.
I recently had a chance to catch up with Dimitri over the holidays and as Greeks often do – food always sneaks into the conversation. Here’s Bits & Bites with Dimitri:
Q. You have $10 for a quick lunch – where would you go?
A. Chinese in Astoria right across Citibank, Ditmars Boulevard. Le Pain Quotidien on Santa Monica promenade in Los Angeles.

I like the idea of those mini interviews Peter! I hope you will have a chance to shoot with him again. BTW I think I am back now that the baby sleeps more, but I am not sure yet!
I love most of the food he loves to eat too. And vodka is one drink i love and never gives me a head ache.
Lamb with potatoes in the oven, that reminds me of my mom cooking it every Sunday. Great interview.
