SuShiang

Best meal I ever ate:

My next one, I hope.

My current drink of choice:

Any decent cognac. Failing that, IBC root beer.

I really wish I could:

Pick up a slab of Arthur Bryant's ribs without getting on a plane.

My favorite comfort food:

Shipwreck (look it up).

My top 5 favorite restaurants:

The burger shack in Winnetka that closed a few years ago; the little place in Morro Bay where we had Crab Louis ages ago; the lobster pound on the Maine coast where the owner disapproved of the way we ate our lobster; Sam Wo's (bletch!); the next restaurant we're going to.

My most tattered cookbooks:

The Spice Cookbook; The Joy of Cooking; (soon to be) Barefoot Contessa; From My Mother's Kitchen; my wife's card file.
