This is one of twelve excerpts from an exclusive interview with Nick Chappell at the 2022 Columbus Fall Challenger. They will be posted over time in the fourth quarter of 2022.
Tennis Acumen: You mentioned food. Do you have any favorite restaurants or places you will always go when you hit a given city?
Nick Chappell: I try whatever food there is, wherever I might be. So that's why I do like traveling to other countries because it's a little bit different. In the US. there's more chains and you are more likely to eat at Chipotle in the US. If I'm outside the U.S., I really enjoy trying other types of foods. I love Mexican food, so that's one of the reasons I like going to Mexico.
Tennis Acumen: Authentic. Real stuff. Now, if you're having friends over and you were cooking dinner, what would be your 'go to' meal?
Nick Chappell: My girlfriend I will host, and we try to pick something together. Our favorite food to go out on the date is French food. So, one that we've consistently made a couple of times is beef bourguignon, a French stew. It's really easy to cook for a lot of people because you make it a crock pot. It's really hearty, but it's delicious.
Tennis Acumen: Most guys would say I would order takeout. (laughter) Yeah, that's what most guys tell me. Some specifically say: “I would just order pizza.”
Nick Chappell: Oh, man. I know some of those guys.
