Everyone's a critic, but there's an art to the well-considered, expert restaurant review. Besha Rodell is an award-winning writer and the chief restaurant critic for The Age. She's written for The New York Times, Food & Wine, Bon Appetit and many others. Now she's written a memoir, Hunger Like a Thirst, which is about her life, her love of food and how good criticism can become an integral part of a city's culinary life.
