Location: New York, NY
About:
Serious Eats: Drinks Editor.
I'm from Oregon, which means I don't have to choose between beer and wine.
Favorite foods:
Dungeness crab. Riesling. Rhubarb. Peking duck. Pie, all kinds.
Last bite on earth:
Let's not get dark. How about last bites in NYC? Oysters and crudo at Marea. Andrew Carmellini's smoked ricotta ravioli. Parm's meatball sub. Espresso from Abraço. And then, when I got hungry again, Motorino pizza.

Sausalito, CA: You Can Feel Okay about Ordering the Beef at Fish
Actually wound up visiting this spot this week, and though the seating was lovely, was underwhelmed by the non-burger food we had.

The Food Lab Lite: Orange-glazed Carrots with Ramp Barley and Spinach
This was really delicious. Kenji-makes-lunch days are the best days, especially when they involve vegetables. (And are also Max-makes-ice-cream days.)

Slow Down With These 5 Sipping Tequilas
@Toddlessness: silver tequilas may have a little more in common with gin (they're herbal-tasting and fresh) but aged tequilas will appeal to whiskey drinkers a bit more, because of spending time in barrels. Really, though, tequila is different from both--the flavor comes from the agave, and not from added botanicals like in gin.

The Best Frozen Lime Margaritas
@alex_green: just the temperature. In our freezer, 2-3 hours wasn't enough to get a solution cold enough to stay slushy and not melt the ice in the blender. Overnight worked much, much better.

How to Treat a Tourist Right in the West Village and Soho
Love this. It's fun to taste the bitters at The Meadow, and it's such a quirky little shop. Will add that my parents LOVED going to Spotted Pig early (like, 4:45) for a burger before there was a wait. (It's not nice to make tourists wait.)
