Profile

Best meal I ever ate:

While not my favorite restaurant, my favorite MEALS are easily when I go to Veselka w/ my Mother and Grandmother, we order 1 of everything (pierogies, stuffed cabbage, borscht, blintzes w/ raspberry sauce) and we just share. Which brings me to my food philosophy, that it's not usually JUST about the food.

My current drink of choice:

Sauvignon Blanc, French Martini or a Dirty Martini if I really need something strong!

I really wish I could:

Have more time to cook for my family

My "Go-to" dinner party dish:

lasagne and salad with really good bread and olive oil if I want to have time to be social with my guests. Grilled steak with cilantro garlic sauce or some type of fish with season appropriate sides if I want to impress.

My favorite comfort food:

Mac and Cheese, the fake stuff, not the fancy 4 cheese version, or almost any soup, especially miso.

My top 5 favorite restaurants:

I can't pick just 5! - Nobu, Fleur de Sel, Esca, 11 Madison Park, Haiku and David Burke and Donatella for starters

My most tattered cookbooks:

Joy of Cooking and lately The Silver Spoon
