Julia Child's editor, a dystopian look at the future of restaurants, and a tongue-in-cheek response to lifestyle brands, from a lifestyle brand.
Here are 5 of our favorite things we read this week:
- Last week, Stephen Colbert poked fun at Gwenyth Paltrow's lifestyle brand—this week, goop responded with a cheeky post. [goop]
- When Panda Express opened in Manhattan in the '90s, they left when New Yorkers showed no signs of leaving their go-to corner Chinese spots. Now they're back for a second try. [The New York Times]
- What will restaurants look like in 2061? A lot like today's—minus the poultry and oysters. [Eater]
- The sad desk lunch is often mistaken to be a recent issue—but it goes back further than you'd think. [City Lab]
- Book editor Judith Jones has an impressive roster—Julia Child and John Updike to name a few. Here's some wisdom she aquired along the way, in her own words. [Eater]
