Musician Ted Leo Perks Up With Jameson and Emergen-C
"I've been vegetarian since 1988 and a vegan since 1998, and after all that, you hit a certain point where the idea of a veggie burger is really not appealing to you anymore."

"For breakfast, I had granola with blueberries. That's it. No coffee. I'm off coffee, which is really painful."
"I always try to convince a child to get soft-serve so I can have some of it, but they're very, very reluctant because they think I'm going to take over their ice cream."
"I had yellowtail sashimi and king salmon sashimi, and an eel and avocado roll with brown rice. And then I had a piece of gum because I had sushi breath."
"I don't know who in Greece or here decided it was time to put bread on the grill, but they're genius and should be lauded as a hero."
The man behind 'Medium Raw' and 'No Reservations' tells us where he scores takeout in this week's New York Diet.
"There was a big lobster, which of course was delightfully messy to eat. You just have to get your hands dirty and get stuck in there."
"For dinner I went to Angelica Kitchen, which made me realize what a clichéd vegan I am."
"I had a cappuccino — or, really in coffee-culture parlance a cortado. I think these names for coffee are utterly ridiculous."
"I thought there'd be more food there, but there wasn't. I filled up on Chateauneuf du Pape in place of food."
"I quit smoking weed a couple years ago, and every time I eat these hash browns I'm like, 'I wish I could eat this while I'm baked.'"
"I grew up being totally obsessed with going to Maine and getting a lobster roll. Everything you eat when you're a kid, you get very picky about it when you're older. It's got to be exactly the way you remember it."
"A burger without fries is not a burger."
"We had a bottle of red wine. We might have had a second bottle of red wine."
"I hate the food at the Waldorf; I never like eating there. So I just had a fruit salad."
"I walked in there and just ordered every panini on the menu. I didn't like the music they were playing ... I was just like, 'Let's put Led Zeppelin on.'"
"At one point I was like, 'Oh no! I got syrup on my bacon pizza!' and it was just pornographic."
"I had a popcorn and a little Coca-Cola. I don't really drink sodas, but when I have popcorn or pizza I need a little. It's the perfect combination."
"Alcohol has so many empty calories. You get a nice little buzz from it, but I’d rather have a pork chop."
The 'Top Chef Masters' judge was recently in the East Bay visiting his mother and penned a couple of impromptu reviews for Grub Street NY.
