Extra-vieille mimolette, which was also Charles de Gaulle's favorite cheese!

Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: Bacon of the Month Club

I like it crispy. When my French father first came to the US when he was 25, he mistook Oscar Meyer bacon for some sort of American prosciutto. He ate it raw on wonder bread until an American friend gasped to see him eating the raw bacon.

Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: Southside Market Sausage

Favorite BBQ: Hill Country on W. 26th Street in Manhattan. The moist beef brisket makes me want to be a vegetarian for a year just so that my moment of relapse can be with their Brisket. I'd then go on a national anti-vegetarianism tour and build a massive following of devoted Hill Country Brisketeers. Mmmm BBQ.

Tough to beat a toasty everything bagel smeared with a little cream cheese and topped with smoked salmon, capers, tomato and onion. Cup of coffee with a touch of milk.

We're Giving Away a Truly Great Steak This Weekend

First of all, I think Peter Luger's is the biggest rip-off house in New York. I have no idea what makes that experience worth that much money. They serve good meat with huge attitude to a clientèle of wanna-be mobsters trying to show off to their stripper dates. The sides are decent, but not worthy of the steep price.

Anyhow, favorite: black and blue ribeye at Frank's in Chelsea because the chef actually serves it black and blue!

Satisfying & healthy soft foods for those with dental problems?

Thanks so much Erin! I had a very ripe papaya for breakfast (drizzled with fresh lime juice), and it was yummy -- but borderline challenging for my sore jaw.

Risotto is a good call. I know what I'm having for dinner!

A Healthy Diet

Eat slowly and take small bites. Pick dishes that are packed with strong flavors that you enjoy but can't take too much of. Try eating white fish instead of red meat. Take smaller portions and when you're done with your first serving, cover your plate with your napkin and do something else besides eat.
