Dark chocolate, and salt and vinegar chips are my weakness - but not together.

The less you do to beautiful food, the better it's going to taste. You don't need to mess with it all the time.

I eat for a living, so working out is definitely part of my job, the same way that the eating, tasting, and drinking is. I try to keep up a consistent workout routine, but I'm not the kind of person who goes to the gym every day and does the same routine.

When I'm cooking for myself, I find that I eat almost completely vegetarian, although I'm not vegetarian.

I run a solid 4-6 miles at a time, and over the last year two years I've gotten really into SoulCycle. It's sort of an evolved form of spinning.

Ultimately, I realized that in order to write about food you need to understand everything about cooking, so I moved to New York and enrolled in the Institute of Culinary Education.

I always want my guests to be happy and impressed.
