Food for Thought: Food Critics

In this episode, Blunt goes behind the scenes of the Portland food industry. Hosts Nora Murphy and Rowan Libby interview Peggy Grodinsky, the editor of the Portland Press Herald’s food section, and Andrew Ross, an anonymous food critic, to learn more about the details of food journalism. Hosts Beulah Landis and Sylvie Holmes interview local chef Figgy DiBenedetto, who starred on the reality cooking show Chopped (and won!) and is known for owning the now closed Figgy’s Takeout and Catering. Eva Neumann engineered this show.
