The Brooklyn Star (593 Lorimer St at Conselyea St, Williamsburg, Brooklyn; 718-599-9899, thebrooklynstar.com) is my favorite; they do Southern, homey, greasy comfort food. I don’t eat meat anymore, but when I did, I loved their fried chicken.”

They’re part of the Liquid Metal series that have an element posted on the tongue. These say ag, that’s the sign for silver. I’m a nerd, so I thought that was kinda cool.”

Photograph: David Rosenzweig “I live in Clinton Hill and there’s this place near me called Madiba (195 DeKalb Ave between Adelphi St and Carlton Ave, Fort Greene, Brooklyn; 718-855-9190, madibarestaurant.com). It’s South African and it’s fantastic—I love their menu. I don’t have a favorite dish, because I like to try different things, you know? But their curry ($16–$22) is really good.”
