Writing About Food

This month I wrote a story for my favorite publication, Saveur, which was a cool moment in my writing career. The story is about the owner of a great old-school deli a block from where Allie and I live in Hoboken. I focus on the mozzarella this guy makes from scratch every morning. He’s the best around. Check out my piece!

    I read that story. Congratulations on that piece. That is so fantastic! I never even knew “mutz” was slang for Mozzerella–all along I thought that was the code word in the language of “abreev” that I used with my kids for years and years. (I’m THAT mom).

    Can you write more articles please? You make the reading fun and so not boring!

    Really interesting article … Especially as we have just spent 6 months in Italy and discovered eating mozzarella in new guises. I think I can now taste tell the difference between buffalo and cow mozzarella.

    It was Sandy. I don’t think the hurricane reached him other than via the weeklong blackout. His place is a block inland from mine, and the flooding stopped right before our apartment. The lobby of our old apartment was turned into an aquarium though. What a crazy time.
