Welcome to Trusted Tables

Anne Manning. Food Writer. Meal in Venice.
Hello. It’s me, Anne. Want to know about this amazing meal that put such a smile on my face?

Hi, I’m Anne. I love food and writing about food. I write about what strikes my fancy. SO don’t expect critical restaurant reviews detailing service horrors; or the impossibility of finding a great (you fill in the blank) in (whatever place you may plan to visit).

I do fancy writing about restaurants offering something special, predominantly in Miami and Martha’s Vineyard. But I’m also intrigued by home cooks, like Kate who took on a very famous clam chowder recipe in her home kitchen.

And I get around. If you want a food scout in places like Boston, New York, DC, maybe London or Crete or Edinburgh, I’m your woman.

How food brings history alive, bite by bite, is my current obsession. It’s just a more fun way to view history than reading a text.

I also love food trends and food weirdness. The pickle passion story nails both the trend and weird category.

Reading and writing about food makes me more intentional about what and where and how I eat. It connects me to a lot of really interesting and thoughtful and hopeful people. And I hope it does the same for you.

But, seriously, why read Trusted Tables?

My friend John once said, “I figure I only have so many meals left in my life and I want to enjoy each and every one of them.”

That sentence rocked my world. It’s so simple. And, for me, so true.

I hope reading these posts puts a smile on your face.
