Editor's note: Another Meet & Eat today with the folks behind Serious Eats. Today we're pleased to introduce Shane Lyons, Sunday night's dismissed contestant on The Next Food Network Star. His cereal-crusted chicken didn't make the cut, but he put up a good fight all season. --Erin Name: Shane Lyons Location: Colorado Springs, CO Occupation: Cook URL: thebluestar.net Favorite comfort food? I LOVE Buffalo wings with thick and stinky blue cheese. Guilty pleasures? Ben and Jerry's Cinnamon Buns ice cream. What food won't you eat? Soy butter. What would you like to try but haven't yet? Haggis. Favorite food person? Alton Brown....

Editor's note: And we continue our Meet & Eat interviews with the various folks behind Serious Eats with intern Sarah Wolf. Sarah's with us for the summer, blogging about everything under the sun, from wacky (Bon Jovi Teapot) to serious (On the Scarcity of Women Chefs). She's also put together some great summer holiday menus for serious eaters to dig into. So please give Sarah a hearty hello. --Adam Name: Sarah Wolf Location: New Haven, Connecticut Occupation: College student URL: bulldogfood.wordpress.com Favorite comfort food? Rice pudding. I ate almost nothing else when I had my wisdom teeth out and had to forcibly wean myself off it once my mouth healed. Guilty pleasures? Cookie batter ice cream from Ashley's in New...

Editor's note: And so we continue the getting-to-know-you routine with the folks behind Serious Eats. Today, we give the treatment to SE intern Hannah Howard, who's with us for the summer. In addition to the extemporaneous blogging she's been doing on the site, she's jumped right in and has started an entertaining, heartfelt, and insightful column for us called Served, which gives readers the inside scoop on her job as a waiter. So without further ado, here's Hannah! --Adam Name: Hannah Howard Location: Upper Upper West Side, New York City Occupation: Student and waiter Favorite comfort food? Different pasta incarnations. At home, pasta with olive oil, garlic, red chile flakes, lots of black pepper, and pecorino. At Casellula, where I...

Editor's note: I always love finding out more about the folks behind the websites I read. And more than a few of you must, too, because we've had a number of readers suggest doing "Meet & Eats" with the people of Serious Eats. We actually started doing this back in March with SE intern Emily Koh, and now we're going to pick up where we left off with SE intern Gordon Mark. Gordon is the man behind the awesome NYC Chinatown guides on Serious Eats New York, he's our resident video game guru, and he's the guy keeping you up to date on what to watch on food TV. So without further ado, here's Gordon! --Adam Name: Gordon Mark Location:...

Our intern Emily Koh comes into our office regularly to help round up food-related news and cool stuff on the Internet (which is tough; have you seen how big the Internet is?) along with anything else we force nicely ask her to do, such as translate anything written in Japanese or Korean. Get to know Emily's food loves, desires, and hatreds in this week's Meet & Eat! Name: Emily Koh Location: New York City Occupation: Student URL: flickr.com/photos/meltingnoise Favorite comfort food? Carb-y breakfast foods. Milk and cereal with sliced bananas, toast with peanut butter and honey, oatmeal with blueberries and almonds...I could go on and on and on. As you can tell, breakfast is my favorite meal of the day,...

Yen and Michi's blog, Lunch, is exactly what it sounds like: a blog about lunch, updated daily with a photo of what they had for lunch and a 4 p.m. snack. A virtual peephole into Yen and Michi's day, Lunch inspires me to take the time for lunch. We get to know Yen and Michi in this week's Meet & Eat. Name: Yen Ha and Michi Yanagishita Location: New York City Occupation: Architects at Front Studio URL: lunchstudio.blogspot.com What prompted you to start your blog, Lunch? We've always eaten lunch the way we do (which is to say everywhere and everything) and we've always had this slight obsession with cataloging, so it seemed normal to combine the two compulsions in...

Through her blog Dessert Comes First, Lori Baltazar not only smothers you with her passionate photo-laden odes to all things sugary and decadent, but in my opinion provides some of the best content for the Filipino Tourist Board...unbeknownst to them. If you've never thought about visiting Manila before, you may change your mind after discovering the city's best chocolate cakes, mango torte, gelato, oatmeal cookies, and—trust me—roughly a million other things that you'd want to eat. Unfortunately, you have to be in Manila to take advantage of Lori's recommendations. Get to know Lori in this week's Meet & Eat and maybe you'll be inspired to get a plane ticket to Manila. One-way....

Even if you hadn't been planning to cook something, the desire will inevitably kick in after staring at her vibrant photographs that smack your face right into the belly of a dish. Get to know Deb in this week's Meet & Eat....

The recipe for the
Meet & Eat feature on Serious Eats has always called for a varied mixture of food lovers--from chefs to critics to bloggers to food-loving tech nerds. One of the most important ingredients in that mix, though, is the Serious Eats community--the folks who are on the site sharing their thoughts and insights. This week's subject,
Lou, is one such member. If you haven't met Lou in
Talk or in various comments, come on in and get to know him.
