What is currently your favorite restaurant?

The Prado in Balboa Park.

Do you have a favorite dish from any San Diego restaurant?

Atlantic Salmon at The Fish Market.

What is your favorite lunch spot?

Hamburger Mary’s on a sunny day.

How often do you cook at home?

Hardly ever. I prefer actually eating something other than sandwiches and cereal, which is about all I can do in the kitchen!

Do you prefer cooking with others or banish all human life from your kitchen?

I invite human life into my kitchen – I prefer handing the chef the utensils while he cooks up the meal. I do good clean up though!

Name three items that are always in your refrigerator.

Milk, chicken, mayonnaise [see the cereal and sandwich comment, above].

Name three people, living or dead, you’d most like to invite for a dinner party.

Gilda Radner, Madeline Kahn and Ellen DeGeneres.
