Edmonton

Best meal I ever ate:

Tasting Menu at Susur or our family summertime lobster and mussel boils

My current drink of choice:

Champagne is my favourite. Had a very nice zinfandel paired with coq au vin recently, so exploring this underappreciated (in my opinion) wine.

I really wish I could:

prepare food for my family and friends as a living.

My "Go-to" dinner party dish:

We host a lot of sushi soirees. If I'm the guest, I will bring what is requested of me, or something that will complement the rest of the host's menu!

My favorite comfort food:

oatmeal with brown sugar and cream; actually most sweet breakfast dishes. Also, Sunday roasts.

My top 5 favorite restaurants:

Simply because of memorable meals I've had: Buddha Bar - Paris, Bonsoir Clara - Brussels, Susur - Toronto, Il Portico - Edmonton, Brewbakers - Fredericton. Okay, maybe recently, Agua in Barcelona might bump Bonsoir Clara...gah, this is hard.

My most tattered cookbooks:

For Christmas one year, my sister gave me a recipe box filled with all of our mom's old recipes. She took the time to write them all out for me. What a treasure!
