Just Announced: Society for Features Journalism Awards!

  • June 27, 2019

This just in! The Society for Features Journalism has announced the 2019 Excellence-in-Features Awards, and I’m thrilled to have won the category Best Food Criticism for my review of Journeyman’s Food & Drink, which originally appeared in the Orange County Register last summer. I also grabbed an honorable mention for overall food-writing portfolio.

It’s an honor and privilege to be recognized alongside such incredible writers whose work has inspired me for years, including the late Jonathan Gold of the L.A. Times, Tim Carman at the Washington Post, Alison Cook at the Houston Chronicle and Michalene Busico at the Dallas Morning News.

Congratulations to all the amazing journalists across the country (and Canada!) who were recognized in this year’s awards.

For more travel inspiration and photos, I invite you to follow me and join the conversation on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. To view more of my work for the Register, check out the archives.

Hotel Review: San Ysidro Ranch, Montecito

Hey, OC. Do you know about this one? Cool new modern Thai restaurant in Irvine: Nara Thai Kitchen . Beautiful food, but the kitchen doesn't do spicy. The flavors are not nearly as exciting as, say, @thai_avenue (still the best) in Garden Grove, but this is easily one of the nicer Thai restaurants in OC. Great potential here.  It just opened a couple weeks ago. You'll need a reservation. It's been packed every night.  #orangecounty #thai 290 10
Hey OC, do y'all know about this new wood-fire pizzeria @theparlorsp in Tustin? Really good stuff! They're open only for weekday lunch, no weekends or dinner, located next door to the new @ryegoods. It's an odd location (adjacent to the chef's commercial catering kitchen, maybe?), with limited seating inside the tiny parlor itself. But they also have extra seating in a common indoor/outdoor area shared with Rye Goods.  I hope they eventually open for dinner/weekends. ⁠ 333 25
I might have found my new favorite place in OC for chicken pho @pho.nicfv⁠ 174 19
My sincerest thanks to the North American Travel Journalists Awards!⁠ 129 19
Hey, OC. FYI in case you missed it, @ryegoods has opened a new location on Red Hill in Tustin, just down the street from Flight/Mess Hall. Same incredible breads and pastries as the original on the peninsula. No lines here, plus a huge seating area. #sourdough #pastries #coffee #orangecounty 337 10
One more post from our lovely stay at @fstokyo. Delicious lunch at @maisonmarunouchi, the casual sibling to @sezannetokyo. Excellent all around. And clearly popular with Tokyo's ladies who lunch: the clientele during our visit, almost entirely women. Quite the see-and-be-seen crowd. 70 1
