Real Name:

Adam Stark

Location:

Cambridge, MA

Best meal I ever ate:

Nobody has ever made hamburgers like my grandma did. She put seaweed and garlic and wheat germ and tomato and oregano in them.

My current drink of choice:

Gerolsteiner with pomegranate concentrate

My "Go-to" dinner party dish:

Black beluga lentils with Merguez

My favorite comfort food:

Angel hair with tons of olive oil and garlic and pecorino romano.

My top 5 favorite restaurants:

I'm writing this for the real world, where unfortunately, price matters -- and I'm not always "gourmet": Green Street Grille, Henrietta's (for breakfast only), City Slicker (for the pizza, not the ambience!), Fugakayu, and some nameless place in a Druze village in Northern Israel which makes the best hummous and chopped salad you will ever experience. I'd boot any one of them off the list if Marino's ever re-opened.

My most tattered cookbooks:

Madhur Jaffrey's World Vegetarian
