Help Me Make This L.A'.s Go-To Food Coverage

I'd love to get reader input as I improve the site and newsletter and make How to Eat L.A. the best Los Angeles food site on the internet.

Hello readers!

How to Eat L.A. will be on a publishing break for the next two or three months as I work on improving processes, content, and most importantly, The Map. I'm currently using Google Maps, but I'm working on a custom product that I'm very excited to show off — it just needs some polishing first.

I'd love to get reader input as I improve the site and newsletter and make How to Eat L.A. the best Los Angeles food site on the internet. I want to know things like:

What kind of restaurants are you interested in reading about?
What's missing from L.A. restaurant coverage — in all publications, not just How to Eat L.A.?
Do you have a favorite L.A. food writer?
Would you attend How to Eat L.A. events?

If you're interested in helping guide How to Eat L.A. as it grows, respond to this email or DM me on Instagram! I'm open to all constructive feedback. (That's sort of a lie, I'm very sensitive and I'm nervous about opening myself up to criticism like this. But I think if it's civil I can handle it!)

Have an excellent weekend, eat well, and I'll see you back here in a bit.
