Lyndsay C. Green covers restaurants and dining for The Detroit Free Press. She comes to her area of specialization from a background in beauty reporting. In this conversation–recorded after a chance encounter with Andrew at The Chef Conference in Philly this spring–Lyndsay shares her personal story and how she migrated from beauty to food, the honing of her writing style, Detroit’s restaurant scene, and the inherent role of race in criticism.
THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW:
Andrew is a writer by trade. If you’d like to support him, there’s no better way than by purchasing his most recent book, The Dish: The Lives and Labor Behind One Plate of Food (October 2023), about all the key people (in the restaurant, on farms, in delivery trucks, etc.) whose stories and work come together in a single restaurant dish.
We’d love if you followed us on Instagram.
