Jenkintown native Bradley Cooper is continuing his dive into the cheesesteak business by taking over the Eagles‘ kitchen at the NovaCare Complex to serve Danny & Coop’s cheesesteaks to the team’s staff alongside his business partner, Danny DiGiampietro of Angelo’s Pizzeria, writes Michael Tanenbaum for the Philly Voice.
The Eagles’ biggest celebrity superfan donned an apron to stuff DiGiampietro’s house-made rolls with sliced rib-eye steak and Cooper Sharp cheese on Thursday.
Cooper and DiGiampietro started Danny & Coop’s as a pop-up food truck in New York City two years ago. In December, the pair opened their first storefront in East Village to a rave review from the New Yorker’s Helen Rosner.
“Most bread used for cheesesteaks tastes like nothing; it serves as a container and a handhold,” she wrote. “DiGiampietro’s bread tastes like bread, like sun on a wheat field, like the mysteries of fermentation, like salt and steam and the hot, mysterious darkness of the oven.”
Cooper has been making regular appearances at the eatery, which is open only three days a week with limited and irregular hours. It serves only cheesesteaks and often draws lines of customers with wait times up to an hour.
