I really have no idea how many people read my website on a regular basis. The Janet Jackson cupcake thing clutters my Sitemeter info to the point that the numbers don’t really tell me anything. Which is why I’d like to ask you a favor. If you read the site on a regular basis, can you please post a comment below? Just give the following information:

How did I find this site? I honestly can’t remember. Maybe via Stumble?
I just love food and found myself reviewing the food situation repeatedly on my blog when I spent three months in Germany. So I guess I have a soft spot for people who feel the need to write about food more than I do.

I think that I first saw this site on the Typepad homepage around the time of the Janet Jackson cupcake.
I like your stories and experiments and I read your site a couple of times a week. And you look most like my brother-in-law, Noah.

How I came across this site: Via ‘The Daily Bread’ blog.
Dear A.,
I will gladly oblige!
Name: Clotilde
Location: Paris, France
How You Found The Site: Originally through Jackie’s Gastroblog, she linked to your Janet cupcake entry.
Favorite Food: Hint : It starts whith “choc”, ends with “olate”.
Least Favorite Food: Endives. Nasty, nasty things, these are. Especially “endives au jambon”, where they are wrapped in ham and drenched in béchamel.
You already knew that, but your writing entertains me to no end – I can’t read you at work because it makes me laugh out loud and then people point. Most recent favorite : the bit about Martha and her mom…
And I guess you kinda look like my cousin Thomas.

Least Favorite Food: I’m not big on figs. But I love fig newtons; go figure.
Favorite Restaurant: The Helmand (Afghan food, locations in Baltimore, Cambridge, and San Fran –and maybe Chicago now—they are run by brothers/cousins of Hamid Karzai, but who knew who that was when I started going to the one in Baltimore in grad school….and by the way, although the proprietors are all related, it seems they are not all terribly fond of one another so mention the other locations at your own risk…..)

Kimberly, Baltimore (but soon to be Nashville)
My friend Mindy (no, really, her actual name and she’s quite smart and not a stripper or anything like that, not that strippers are bad or stupid people necessarily) sent me a link to your Janet C-cupcakes entry. Then I read the whole brouhaha about your review in eGullet (snobs) and was hooked.
Fav food? Hard to choose, but this morning I’d say avocados. And real tomatoes. Oh, and crawfish.
Least fav food? Got to be broccoli.
Giddy’s right about the Helmand in Baltimore–it’s great. But my vote goes to the Charleston. Or Baltimore’s favorite restaurant no one’s supposed to tell anyone else about (Peter’s Inn, ha ha)
Thanks for your fun site!
Beth, Oklahoma
I can’t remember the name of the blog, but it was a link to the Janet Jackson cupcake recipe. I thought your writing was so funny and so entertaining that I’ve become a regular reader.
Favorite food: home-grown tomatoes
Least favorite: peas
Fav restaurant: Dink’s Barbeque
My name’s Mike,
I live in The Bay Area,
heard about your blog durring those heady Janet Jackson Breast of Times. And then stuck around due to the young AG’s gift of whacky prose (one of my favorite things) concerning adventurous eating (another of my favorite things).
Favorite foods for me are anything salty. Olives, come to mind. I also love stinky cheeses and am crazy into wine, which has become an expensive habit.
Least favorite food, anything bland and not interesting.
Restaurant: Hmmmm. There’s a little place in Spokane Washington called the Elk Public House that is pretty good and super casual.
Shoe size…13!
Okay, that’s enough. Thanks Adam for the entertaining BLOG.

Least favorite food: I actually don’t like lemony desserts (sorry.)
Favorite member of NSync: Justin.
You look a little like my second cousin. Not terribly similar, though.
I like your site because you’re funny and also because you, like me, seem to be a non-southerner living in the South. Right? or are you from the south? and i also envy you because i hated my roommate while i was in college. you seem to get along swimmingly with yours. I read your site pretty much every day at work, in between slate.com and my friend’s blog, hold-it.blogspot.com. You’re part of my routine now, so I hope you continue you excellent work.

My favorite foods are: Kentucky Colonel Fried Chicken, Lo Mein, and Seared Ahi.
And I don’t want to even so much as look at a banana.
My favorite local restaurant is an Italian place called Bella Notte, although I’m a sucker for anything that revloves.
I wear a size 13 shoe, and, according to my grandmother, I’d be a lot taller if there weren’t so much of me turned under.
I pretend my mother’s maiden name is DeBeers.
I think Lance from N’Sync is cool, because I have a weak spot in my heart for astronauts (thanks to I Dream of Jeannie).
My family eerily resembles the cast of Moonstruck, and I can’t think of anyone who looks like you in that movie.

favorite food: hmmm. right now: seared rare tuna; manchego cheese; anything that invokes the holy trinity of garlic, ginger, & chilies; creme brulee (try making it with Frangelico liqueur! Serve it this way to friends, and they will offer you their firstborn if you promise to make it for them again)
least favorite food: I was raised by parents who think cottage cheese with maple syrup on it is a tasty treat. Did I mention I’m adopted? :)
favorite restaurant: Mataam Fez in Boulder, CO (this wonderful Moroccan place where you lounge on pillows and eat everything with your fingers).
other random comments:
1. I’m making my first sourdough starter too! I’m a little nervous because after seeing your pictures, my starter doesn’t seem nearly gross enough. I started it two weeks ago and am making my first loaf of bread with it as we speak.
2. I once had a dream that I was editing blue cheese. Literal blue cheese, mind you, not written material about blue cheese. I believe I ended up telling a copy editor to change it to a tamer, less assertive blue cheese so that our readers wouldn’t get confused and think the cheese had just plain gone bad.

Lex from Toronto, Ontario
I found your site, before the breast development, through Typepad’s most recently updated list… I setup a link so I could cruise by and see what you were up to.
Favorite Food:
This varies by the season…
And of course you can never go wrong with BBQ. Something quick from the grill or anything slow and smoky will make me a very happy girl.
Ack… I have to stop… I haven’t had breakfast yet.
Least Favorite Food:
Winter vegetables – turnip, rutabaga, squash, parsnip. It’s a shame really… but what can you do?
Favourite Restaurant:
I’m not so good at this favourite/least favourite game… I like to think it’s because I’m always open to new tastes and experiences… but perhaps I’m just an indecisive flake.
The problem is I edit restaurant guides to good, inexpensive restaurants… so these days I only get to try the ones in the right price range. Since I’m working on Ottawa right now… I’ll give you Ottawa recommendations.

Mother’s Maiden Name: Thrift… aha… perhaps this is the root of my cheapness!
Favorite Member of N’Sync: Well… let’s see… there’s the astronaut, the one from that Greek wedding video, the breast man… hum I think there are a couple more aren’t there? None are all that appealing.
Which Member of your Family I Most Resemble: No one in my family. But you do resemble an X, at least in the Amateur Gourmet cover shot. I saw that home-alone-shocked look a lot… perhaps that’s why he is an X.
So, my question to you is… how do you get the restaurants to let you take your food photos? Or do you simply ignore their dirty looks and do it anyway?
Lex, I feign obliviousness and slowness. Seriously. If you act like you’re somewhat autistic, you can get a lot done in this world. I just whip the camera out of my pocket, bend over my dish, snap a photo, and slip it back into my pocket. And then I pretend that nothing happened. Actually, I don’t get many dirty looks. But then again, I do it so quickly that I try not to look around while I’m doing it.

Aha, slow and quick, all in one fell swoop. You have identified my problem. I’ve been doing it quick and slow all along.

I found this site by doing a Google Whack. This is a game where the goal is to put two words into Google which will return one (and only one) website. I put in Tiddlywink and Cornbread and viola–here I am. Nice site, consider yourself bookmarked…
Location: West Virginia (spare the redneck jokes; I have heard them all! I was born and raised in New England so I am a transplant)
I found the link to this website at Breadandcoffee.com
My favorite food would have to be freshly baked bread. Love them carbs! I purchased a special bread baker that you fill with water and the steam that evaporates around it is supposed to produce a crispy crust. I have yet to try it but can’t wait!
This has got to be a sin being from New England, but I don’t like any seafood!
I’m not touching the N’Sync thing.
You look like my cousin Bert.
Thanks for such entertaining posts!

I’m Melissa, have been reading since you started this wonderful web site. Well, location is questionable right now since I was in New Orleans but temporary located in Louisville, KY. I love so many type of food that I couldn’t even begin to list a favorite. My least favorite food would have to be brussel sprouts. It is about the only thing I haven’t been able to eat. My favorite resturant is Rio Mar in New Orleans. I was lucky enough to be able to eat there before the storm. They make the best “wet cake”. Shoe size 6.5. Not giving my mother’s madien name that is a privicy issue. Could care less about N’sync. I don’t think you resemble anyone from my family.
