Location:

Colorado

Best meal I ever ate:

At a restaurant on the edge of the Chao Praya river in Bangkok. I really wish I could remember the name of the restaurant or what we ate, but I was suffering from some serious jetlag.

My current drink of choice:

Wine or, when I'm off that, Izze Pomegranate

I really wish I could:

Grill. We desperately need a back porch to put a grill on.

My "Go-to" dinner party dish:

I rarely repeat something twice, but, unless it's the heat of summer, it's usually a braise.

My favorite comfort food:

Meatloaf and mashed potatoes

My top 5 favorite restaurants:

Frasca (Boulder), Fruition (Denver), Veritas (NYC), Blue Ribbon Brooklyn, and Opera Kallaren Bakfickan (Stockholm)
