Is Everythign Actually Food? with Dara Moskowitz Grumdahl
About this episode
Dara Moskowitz Grumdahl discusses the significance of food criticism and its connections to broader societal issues.
Six-time James Beard Award-winning food critic Dara Moskowitz Grumdahl joins Ana and Mike to make the case that food isn't a soft beat, it's the whole story. From ICE raids gutting Twin Cities restaurants to the real wage gap hiding in daycare costs, Dara connects the dots between what's on your plate and everything that actually matters. She also gets into why there are fewer working restaurant critics in America than prima ballerinas and what non-competes do to creative careers. Learn more about your ad choices.
