THE PERFECT BREW
This metal dripper is a simple way to make a very strong and flavorful cup of coffee. I love the retro-futuristic look of the design.
Kalita Wave #155 Dripper, $35 at wreckingballcoffee.com
AN ELEGANT POUR
I use my Hario kettle every single morning; it provides an even stream of water that's perfect for pour-over brewing.
Hario Buono Kettle in copper, $110 at amazon.com
DRESS TO IMPRESS
I love using this dressing on salads and as a marinade for wings; it's got a little spice and tons of bright, zesty peppercorn flavor.

ADAM BOOKBINDER, design director
Favorite restaurant of late: Tazinna, in Forest Hills, Queens. Great Mediterranean fare; I love the broiled octopus!
Go-to dish for entertaining: Garlic hummus. It's so easy to make in the blender, and is always a favorite among guests. I serve it with small triangles of pita bread, toasted and drizzled with a little olive oil.
Next travel destination: Disneyworld! Taking the kids for the first time. Looking forward to the Star Wars Jedi training class at Hollywood Studios.
