Travel
My Travel pages feature articles from trips around the world with photographs by my inamorata Steven Richter. The two of us are almost always on the road in the winter — Venice, Paris, Rome, Barcelona, India, Vietnam and Cambodia — and we try to escape the New York summers by going somewhere cool. You’ll find articles I’ve written about these places here. Friends are constantly emailing me for lists of my favorites places to eat on their own travels. From time to time, I’ll post some of my current favorites in this Travel section.
