The chicken at Gabriella Cafe. They have this amazing roasted chicken with apricots and currents and capers that is just incredible.

The best meal I’ve had in the county was at Crow’s Nest. I had salmon and it was awesome. It was so good it was breathtaking.

The Surfrider Cafe’s blackened salmon brochette salad with blue cheese and balsalmic. It’s the perfect combination of tangy sweet and savory. It’s the hands- down best salad I’ve ever had.

In my kitchen, because I know where to get all my fruits and vegetables at the farmers’ market and in my backyard.

The best meal I’ve had recently has been at Aptos Street Barbeque in Aptos. I tried a full rack of their ribs, potato salad, and beans the other night, and I’m from the deep south, from New Orleans, Louisiana, and I just loved their barbecue. They did it right. Victor on the barbecue grill is doing it right.
