Location:

Formerly in Reno; now Vegas, baby!

Profile

Best meal I ever ate:

At my sister-in-law's in Florida

My current drink of choice:

Pinot Noir (lots of flavenoids!)

I really wish I could:

bake something other than pie

My "Go-to" dinner party dish:

I guess I don't get invited to or attend enough dinner parties. I don't have one.

My favorite comfort food:

Cambell's cream of tomato soup with cooked spaghetti in it. I'm fully aware that this is weird.

My top 5 favorite restaurants:

Five is too limiting: I like Lotus of Siam (Vegas), Vik's (Berkeley), and a whole bunch more....

My most tattered cookbooks:

"A Surti Touch" by Malvi Doshi. I'm on my third copy. I'm reluctant to throw this one away because its autographed by the author....A great introduction to Gujarati-style cooking.
