When I go out to eat, I’m after a certain feeling.
On the surface, we walk in for pasta and grappa or tacos and tequila but really we’re there for human interaction.
A crafted cocktail isn’t just about the taste, it’s about the design and work offered by a person. And it doesn’t have to be a Michelin feast. It can be street food.
There are so many factors. The design of a beautiful bar can give me that feeling. When the owner of the restaurant is still a part of service, I can get that feeling. The place’s history like the longevity of a pub, or if a notable person was a regular can give me that feeling.
Ultimately, my favorite places are the ones where it feels like—no matter how humble or elevated—they’re just having friends over for dinner. That’s that feeling I’m after.
