Profile

Best meal I ever ate:

Oud Sluis, in Sluis, Netherlands: superb seafood, especially the (partially grilled) coquilles saint jacques canneloni, filled with almost raw oisters and lemon marinated chichory (spelling?)/recently been back - WOW. 12 highlights - the most amazing in the constantly high level sequence of balanced exciting surprises was some seabass, marinated (not very sour), made into a canneloni filled with herbs, grilled for maybe two seconds...heavenly

My current drink of choice:

Condrieu

I really wish I could:

Eat at El Bulli, have a Vineyard in Sicily

My "Go-to" dinner party dish:

Any roasted bird

My favorite comfort food:

Indian Curry, Roasted Chicken, Pasta Putanesca

My top 5 favorite restaurants:

Oud Sluis (NL)!!!, Paul Bocuse, Gio's (Maastricht), Di Cecco (Sienna), Chartier (Paris), Sa Jambina (Callela de Pallafrugel, take the palamos shrimp), some place just outside San Sebastian with great merluza en salsa verde, Beluga (Maastricht), recently had a great experience at De Librije (Zwolle); in general: Palermo and Saigon!

My most tattered cookbooks:

Fish! (Sophie Grigson is the author I believe)
