One of the books I'm working on centers around a couple of teenage foodies living outside of New York City - which means they take frequent forays into the city to eat up.
Of course I could just use my own experiences of living (and eating) in the city for past nine years, but what fun is that? I plan on starting from scratch! It helps that I have a HUGE expense account from my publisher to spend on researching restaurants. Okay, that's not true at all. Which means that these foodies may develop a liking for pizza slices and sushi box lunch specials and maybe they end up just cooking at home a lot because then at least they'll have lunch to bring to work...I mean school the next day.
But really, what fun would that be? So I'm growing a list of all the places I need to check out, and I am ready for some very serious research. All for the sake of the novel, of course. I take research, especially if it involves pasta, cupcakes, and fancy tea houses, very seriously.
I know this blog a bit young to be asking for comments, but I'll give it shot:
What's the best meal you've ever had? In restaurant, at home, whatever? What made it so great?

I dont know if its the best meal Ive ever had, but the most memorable was one Christmas a few years ago. I was visiting my dad and he had rented out the big wedding room at La Venta Inn(a big wedding place my stepmom worked at). We had yorkshire pudding(amazing english stuff if you dont know) some amazing meat and a Baked Alaskan(which is a big cake thing with peppermint ice cream on the inside and its lit on fire. At least thats what I seem to remember haha)
