What'd you eat for dinner last night? Leftovers--sausage and some multigrain rice.
Favorite food: Beef burgeon (burgandy in English). I used to work for an executive chef in Tempe who made the best I have ever tasted.
Least favorite food: Seafood.
Favorite dessert: New York cheesecake.
Favorite local restaurant and meal to order there: Andrew (Jemsek) already did Haji Baba's, so I'm going to have to say the chicken sandwich at Honey Bear's Bar-B-Q in Phoenix.
Favorite local bar and cocktail to order there: I've been really into the Blueberry Ale they've been serving at The Lost Leaf.
Favorite thing to cook at home: I usually dig around the kitchen, find every ingredient that sounds good and some decent wine, and mix it around until it tastes good. Let some chicken breasts marinate in it for 40 minutes, then I'd preferably grill it, but it usually just ends up in the oven. Saute up some fresh veggies and you get a nice, full meal.
Favorite memory involving food: When I was 8 years old, I had to explain to my fellow classmates in the cafeteria why I was eating a tuna fish sandwich on matza bread.
Recipe or food tip to share: For Thanksgiving, take a couple pieces of bacon, and lay them on top of your turkey before you place it in the oven. As it cooks through, the juices cook in, and you'll have the most tender bird ever!
