Best meal I ever ate:

Unbelievable onion tart at Eden in Athens, Greece, with a beautiful mixed green salad with apples, pinenuts, and fennel, minerally house white, and tatziki - but possibly because I was starved for vegetables after living off of meat skewers for a month...

My current drink of choice:

La Posta Malbec - its my go-to wine of the moment

I really wish I could:

Make the apple tart they serve at Devotay, which is possibly the best desert ever created

My "Go-to" dinner party dish:

Tuna steaks braised with radicchio and chickpeas

My favorite comfort food:

Udan noodle soup

My top 5 favorite restaurants:

Lincoln Cafe (Mt. Vernon, IA), Baroncini's (Iowa City, IA), Holly Hilly Inn (Midway, KY), Tupelo Honey (Asheville, NC), Alana's (Columbus, OH)

My most tattered cookbooks:
