What is your go-to menu pick when dining out? | Contributor Q&A

My go-to definitely changes depending on the type of restaurant, but when it comes to pizza places, I love a classic Margherita pizza. Tomato, basil and mozzarella is a perfect combination, especially when a restaurant uses fresh, high quality ingredients. I like to use it as a barometer when trying a new place—if they nail the Margherita pizza, everything else is probably just as good.
