Want A Date With A Baller Chef?

Those ballers over at The Meatball Shop have been keeping busy, and all work and no play makes chef Daniel Holzman a lonely boy. A new cookbook, a second and third branch of the restaurant, and a modeling gig have made it hard for one half of The Meatball Shop duo to find romance, until now.

Sous Style, the uber-chic fashion-meets-food web site by Elle's Pippa Lord is now playing matchmaker for the chef. With the help of Daniel's bestie and The Meatball Shop co-owner, Michael Chernow (who is married), Lord is helping ladies to find love and many a good meal with Holzman. 

Some selling points? Holzman just finished reading The Beautiful and the Damned and likes going "to the movies, the museum, the park on a bike ride, upstate, skiing, snowboarding, out drinking," and so on. He's also a self-proclaimed "science dork."

So, if you're single, a history buff, and would rather chat over a dimly lit cornertable instead of at a crowded club, this is your chance. Send details about yourself and a tasteful photo (they're being screened!) to pippa@sousstyle.com and throw your hat in the ring. Endless meatballs and a killer ice cream sandwich — that's real love.
