Best meal I ever ate:

Too many to narrow it down...going by my favorite restaurants, I'd say the crispy watercress salad, red curry, and pad see ew at Sripraphi (veggie versions), the Fountain BLT and Mother Nature salads at the Oneness (although their pesto omlettes are also fantastic), the fish tacos, queso, and salsa at La Fonda, the brunch (see "favorite comfort food" below) at Ria's, and the Nicoise salad at Carpe Diem

My current drink of choice:

Wines of all types--I'm experimenting with sherry at the moment (goes with the Spanish culinary exploration)

I really wish I could:

Bake!

My "Go-to" dinner party dish:

I'm big into Spanish tapas classics with fennel, olives, oranges, etc. right now

My favorite comfort food:

Brunch (soysage, biscuits, crispy hashbrowns)

My top 5 favorite restaurants:

Sripraphi (NYC), the Oneness Fountain Heart (NYC), La Fonda Latina (ATL), Ria's Bluebird (ATL), Carpe Diem (ATL)

My most tattered cookbooks:

Not many are tattered--I read them religiously, internalize the info, and then explore on my own, sans book
