Q&A with 'Odd Pair' Wine Blogger Jane Catherine Collins
Houston Press wine blogger Jane Catherine Collins talks with Serious Grape about her Odd Pair column. Yes, someone else ponders what wine pairs well with Twinkies, tater tots, and black-eyed peas.Q & A: Bobby Chinn, Vietnam-Based Restaurateur and Cookbook Author
Serious Eats caught up with Hanoi restaurateur, Bobby Chinn, to talk about his new cookbook, Wild, Wild East: Recipes & Stories from Vietnam. Though we originally scheduled to meet up over a bowl of pho, we instead met up at the Guggenheim. Here’s why: So here we are at the Guggenheim. What happened to your appetite for pho? I had the most disappointing meal in Chinatown yesterday. At Thai Son, recommended by three different friends in Hanoi who know their food! All in all, Vietnamese food in Manhattan has been pretty average at best. So sad, so true. Why do you think that is? I don't know. Access to ingredients? Equipment? Indifference? The fact that management is more often ethnic...Meet & Eat: Allison Hemler, Serious Eats Intern
Editor's note: Please say hello to one of our newest all-star interns, Allison. She is already on fire, photographing and blogging. We are so happy to have her--especially when she picks up ice cream en route to work from the Bent Spoon in Princeton, New Jersey! Thanks again for that chocolate Earl Grey flavor, Allison! Name: Allison Hemler Location: Jersey City, New Jersey Occupation: Caffeine supplier, cookbook cataloguer, intern at Serious Eats, and future library science student. URL: notenoughspoons.wordpress.com Favorite comfort food? Though it's cliche, my mom's homemade marinara sauce. There are times I don't even need to eat it, just existing in a room with the smell of canned tomatoes and Italian seasoning permeating the air is enough. Outside...Meet & Eat: Shane Lyons, The Next Food Network Star Contestant
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....Meet & Eat: Sarah Wolf, Serious Eats Intern
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...Meet & Eat: Hannah Howard, Serious Eats Intern
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...Meet & Eat: Gordon Mark, Serious Eats Intern
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:...Q & A: Top Chef's Lisa Fernandes
"I talk to Stephanie all the time, Richard just emailed me pictures of his new baby, who is so cute. Dale and I are totally cool, I've seen him four times in the last couple of weeks. Andrew and I are fine, he gives me a big hug every time I see him. It's all good."Meet & Eat: Emily Koh
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.
