Daily Eats Interview with Paul Witcover

I had a wonderful opportunity and great evening interviewing speculative fiction writer, Paul Witcover, who talks about his writing, books and favorite Daily Eats. Paul authored "Tumbling After", "Dracula Asylum", and “Waking Beauty" and co-created with Elizabeth Hand, cult comic book series Anima.

Paul was in town from NYC for the Nebula Awards in Tempe, AZ which his novella “Left of the Dial” was nominated.

Daily Eats review of Café Boa – Paul and I started with dessert. Starting with dessert is always fun! Café Boa created a twist on traditional tiramisu – called the Napoleon, thick layer of coca mouse that smelts in your mouth and surprisingly the bottom layer is kitkat candy. We ate every bite with enthusiasm. And I washed it down with a Lorkeet Sparkling Austrian Shiraz. I marveled at the texture and taste of the sparkling Shiraz. Liking it so much I tried Fox Creek Vixen the other sparkling Austrian Shiraz Café Boa has on the wine menu, which was excellent. I never tried a sparkling Shiraz and actually really enjoyed it.

Paul had the BOW-THAI SHRIMP - Farfalle pasta tossed with our spicy Thai pesto of cilantro, peanuts, red peppers and topped with grilled shrimp. He remarked it was delicious.

I had the RIGATONI PUTTENESCA - Rigatoni in a zesty sauce of tomato, garlic, basil, chili peppers, mushrooms, capers and black olives. I love a thick tasty red sauce and I added slices of sweet Italian sausage which really enhanced the taste experience.

Café Boa has is a lovely setting with an exceptional staff. I highly recommend.
