His cookbook based on his TV cooking show, Taste, was published by Random House in October 1998, and won the IACP/Julia Child Cookbook Award for Best International Cookbook of 1999, as well as the Versailles Award in France for “Best Cookbook Based on a TV Show.” In 1986, David collaborated with the English wine authority Hugh Johnson in the production of Hugh Johnson’s Wine Cellar, a food-and-wine computer program published by Simon & Schuster; David’s essay on matching wine and food appears in the program’s manual.
