"Go-to" means something that is commonly chosen over another. "Go-to" can apply to pretty much anything: food, people, places, etc. You can definitely use this with another word! Ex: My go-to food is tacos because they are easy, delicious and versatile. Ex: Her go-to person is her dad. He gives her great advice about life, fixing things, and issues. Ex: His go-to place is the dog park near his house.
