The Quotable Andy Ricker

Pok Pok's Andy Ricker sits down with the Village Voice to talk the usual suspects: authenticity, free rice, and menu loves and hates. Says Ricker, "I'm kind of tired of the shopping list menus. I don't hate it, but I don't love getting a menu that's a whole series of dishes with five ingredients. I feel it's kind of lazy. Oysters, lovage, burnt barley, hummingbird ass hole — come on. Tell me what the fuck you're making." [VV via Eater National]
