My favorites

The restaurant I have visited the most in my life.

I think Sanborns and a taqueria near my grandparents' house called Taqueria Susy.

The drink I prepare best

The daiquiri, which my friend Kevin Tocino of Aruba Day Drinking Bar in Tijuana taught me how to make.

I am an expert in cooking

The two dishes I recently cook often are spaghetti carbonara and Pad Kra Pao with a fried egg on top.
