David Rifkin specializes in pork roast sandwiches at his Porchettaboudit pop-up

David Rifkin taught himself to cook and sharpened his skills in friendly competition with friends while living in New York, where he worked developing software and teaching others how to write it. After the pandemic, he was looking for a change and ended up moving to New Orleans in 2023. Free of small New York apartment kitchens, he mastered cooking large roasts, like the classic Italian herbed pork dish, porchetta. He launched a specialty pop-up, Porchettaboudit, to sell hot pork belly sandwiches with his focaccia bread and sauces. Porchettaboudit is at Pete's Out in the Cold on Thursday, Nov. 12, Miel Brewery on Friday, Nov. 13, as well as Kingpin on Tuesdays, The Friendly Bar on Saturdays and at Pete’s Out in the Cold on Sunday, Nov. 29, during the New Orleans Saints game.
