EP. 47: The Infatuation LA staff writer Kat Hong, how do you review restaurants?
Kat Hong is a LA staff writer for The Infatuation. She was born and raised in Hilo, Hawaii, a small, beautiful town that has maybe 3-4 restaurant openings a year, max. Now living in Los Angeles, Kat likes to fill her time with marveling at the wonder of flight, listening to podcasts, applying for Mensa, getting rejected from Mensa, and perpetually existing on the brink of joining a pyramid scheme. Her work has been featured on Whetstone Magazine’s Point of Origin podcast, Earios’ Filling The Void and The Margaret Cho, Real Food Real Stories’ The Curious Eater, and The Infatuation’s Notcast.
In this episode of How Do You Do? Podcast, Ben asks Kat to share how she writes restaurant reviews in The Infatuation's accessible tone, navigates the fine line between harmless sarcastic humor versus hurtful criticism, explores the booming L.A. pop-up scene, and more.
