Kenji López-Alt My is a New York Times food columnist, and the Chief Culinary Advisor for Serious Eats, home of the best, most thoroughly-tested and explained recipes and food features, well, pretty much anywhere.

His first children’s book, Every Night is Pizza Night, illustrated by Gianna Ruggiero, was released in September. López-Alt lives in San Mateo with his wife Adriana, his daughter Alicia, and their two dogs, Jamón and Shabu.
