CityBeat: What was the last great meal you had and where did you have it?
Emil Mallat: The last meal that I ate outside of
my restaurant was at Rock Bottom, and that was the Southwestern Chicken
Pasta.
That was the last good meal that I had out. I don’t go out and
eat; I make my own food usually. My last great meal was made by me … I
feed myself because I don’t trust anyone else really. That, and it’s
expensive.
CB: Is there a smoothie that can cure a hangover?
EM: I wouldn’t like to say that there’s a hangover
cure, but if you’re hungover you’re going to be deficient in a few
things. I can give you an answer — The Energy Boost. You can put that
in any one of our smoothies. It’s a concoction of ginseng, B12
vitamins, vitamin C, calcium, oat bran (it calms the digestive system
down), soy protein and a little bit of wheat bran. It’s very good on
the stomach and I’ve never heard anyone complain about the taste of it,
so that’s another good thing.
