Meet the new Dallas Morning News restaurant critic

So Sarah has been promoted to be our restaurant critic.

Yes.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I am humbled and honored.

And yeah, I've spent like some of the week crying a little bit about it.

And I'm not even a crier.

Really? Yeah, I just it sits heavy how big of a job this is.

Yes.

And it also seems like a lot of fun and a big challenge.

And some of our listeners might not know that my first big kid job was here at the Dallas Morning News.

So at 17 years old, I was an intern.

That was before I went to journalism school.

And then I took a couple jogs around the block doing other things at other journalism organizations and came back to the Dallas Morning News 14 years ago.

So, you know, my career started here and I love this newspaper.

I started looking at the comics section in kindergarten before I could read it.

So

this place

matters to me.

And my job has been as a writer and editor in the restaurant and food space.

That's really where I felt most comfortable was telling people the facts about the places.

So this just feels big and new and different and exciting that now sometimes I will tell you what I think about those restaurants.

So historically, the Dallas Morning News has had a food critic.

They just haven't had one while we've been doing this podcast.
