How to Spot a Fake Foodie

* Make no mistake: Being a food snob does not make one a foodie. I have always loved food. My earliest and best memories involve being in the kitchen, whether it was my childhood play kitchen in all of its fake, plastic-food glory or in real kitchens standing over simmering pots, peeling vegetables, or testing some new recipe.

There are few things more satisfying than hand-cut fries (or pomme frites as our beret-loving, ketchup-hating friends across the pond call them). Something magical transpires when those beautifully starchy matchsticks hit hot oil–leaving their skins slightly wrinkly but crisp. When paired with a simple aioli–well, that just elevates the dish…

DINNER WITH AN IRON CHEF OK, so the heading’s misleading–I didn’t exactly dine with an Iron Chef, but I did dine at an Iron Chef’s restaurant during New York Fashion Week. In fact, this particular chef and his Meatpacking District eatery are world-renown. Is the suspense killing you yet? One…
