Food writing isn’t the glamour job everybody thinks it is.

That’s why I love the practical tips from food writer Melissa Bradley Diskin on how food writers, restaurant reviewers, bloggers and hospitality reporters who write about food can make their jobs easier. 

If you’re dying to write about food, either as a freelance food writer or a staff writer at a newspaper or magazine, make sure it’s for the right reasons—and know what you’re in for.
