Overwhelmed by this. Truly. @BillAddison, @PatSharpeTex, @pete_wells, @hannahraskin_ , @brettmartin, @BrettEats, @odam—you're the best. American restaurant critics reflect on Alison Cook: 'We should all be studying Alison's life work' https://t.co/Ta9NcIQ3Ha via @houstonchron

Devastatingly good writing ⬇️: "The tortilla smells of corn warmed by sunshine. Your eyes gauge the best starting point to dive in; it’s at the crease, where you’ll find a density of tastes and textures. A two-toned crackle-crunch rings in your jaw." 😊https://t.co/yMnSsIfKhc

Stunned. Grateful for the recognition and to be in such incredible company. Congratulations to @louisachu and @hooleil!!!!

A new era ☀️

[Laurie Ochoa @Laurie_Ochoa]

I've loved my time working with our powerhouse @latimes entertainment & arts team. But this is the right moment for me to return to the world of food, which is in the midst of so much change. Excited to get started!

@allensalkin @evankleiman Definitely a place you can linger, I've never felt rushed out. Agree that it's unlikely that this incarnation of the place will operate late-late.

CRITIC'S CHOICE: Here is The Times' first big restaurant review of the year, a beauty by @BillAddison, arguing Horses is a new LA institution — got to eat there last month, it is unusually sophisticated *without pretense, an "exquisite creature" 🍽️🍷: https://t.co/d5Is1YxUkG

Toasting y’all from [redacted] 😏🥂 #101list

[Daniel Hernandez ✍🏽🌞 @longdrivesouth]

The 101 publishes ✨tonight ✨ and I'll be at the live event in a few hours with @latimesfood colleagues to celebrate! Valiantly, the author of the whole thing @BillAddison, protecting his anonymity, will not be there! 🥺

[Bill Addison @BillAddison]

Ahh, this is a nice bit of news to receive as I struggle with words for @latimesfood's big annual project on a Saturday night. Thanks, @IACPculinary :)

[IACP Culinary 🍴 @IACPculinary]

@cpburt Marhaba, Chris — Sunnin in Westwood might be the way to go, good balance between restaurant-style dishes and some homier dishes. I like the koussa and the mulukhiyah there. Sahtein!

[Bill Addison @BillAddison]

@dreid63 Yes! Still use as well. Made Shere's peach ice cream recipe last night — no milk, all cream, because all the peach juice balances out the cream's richness. Genius.

[Bill Addison @BillAddison]

@korshawilson @khamsin That means the world — thank you, Korsha!

[Bill Addison @BillAddison]

@hillarydixler I would very much like to be the person to introduce her to peach crisp.

[Bill Addison @BillAddison]

@erperkin @kimseverson It does seems to be Universal law. 🙃

[Bill Addison @BillAddison]

@heyadamroberts Thanks, Adam! This piece was assigned to me and, nuanced feelings about the place aside, was a little surprised by what writing it drudged up from my own memories.

[Adam Roberts @amateurgourmet]

If you read any food essay this week, read @BillAddison’s appraisal of Chez Panisse. It’s personal, thoughtful, and wise about the restaurant’s place in history. https://t.co/TOnrnruOwk

[L.A. Times Food @latimesfood]

Restaurant reviews are back!

Here's @BillAddison on @shikulosangeles

Editing @streetgourmetla has been one of the great honors of the last, oh, DECADE that we've been collaborating. These four food/travel stories are nothing short of bonkers beautiful. A special thanks to @mattatouille whose vision guided the whole shebang!

[Bill Addison @BillAddison]

That can soon be arranged ...
