Roth grew up on Long Island and graduated from the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park in upstate New York. He moved to San Francisco to begin his culinary career. The city's Asian influences helped to shape his own penchant for introducing flavors from around the world, he said. He returned to New York three years ago and began working in various restaurants. He was working at Quilty's before joining Coup last April.
Coup is open seven days a week only for dinner.
The hours are Monday through Saturday 6 p.m. to midnight and 6-11 p.m. on Sundays.
