Profile

Best meal I ever ate:

Olives, terrines, pates, braised pig-cheeks, crusty bread and a wonderfully stinky cheese--while sitting overlooking Mt. Ventoux in Provence

My current drink of choice:

Guinness, several Chateau de Beaucastels

I really wish I could:

Learn the basics of sauces and their fundamentals

My "Go-to" dinner party dish:

Bed of arugala and endive with a layer of very rare seasoned beef, shavings of parmesan and roasted beets; or a miso-dressed black cod

My favorite comfort food:

French onion soup, cheese on toast, a perfectly poured guinness,

My top 5 favorite restaurants:

Scaramouche, Celestin, Tojo's, Via Allegro, Black Camel

My most tattered cookbooks:

The book that got me into thinking that I could 'know' food well enough to take an interest in it's preparation and taste: Jamie Olivers first cookbook. The one I go to the most to learn: Larrouse Gastronomique
