Features:Don't know when I became a foodie, probably started writing restaurant reviews for "Weekly Magazine." I never eat or drink for free; I say what's good when it's good, and what's bad when it's bad—do readers like that? I don't just review restaurants; I also promote the delicacies of street vendors because they're more relatable. Why do readers say my writing makes them drool? That's because every piece is written when I'm up late drafting, and my stomach is particularly hungry. I'll tell you the secret. Calling myself a "master" is too much; I'm not a glutton either, just someone who's interested in food, and I've been eating for decades—so I've become an expert without even trying. We've also been eating for decades! My friend says. Of course, besides loving to eat, curiosity must be strong, and you must be willing to visit every place and document it. Anyone can become a foodie.
