City of Gold

Jonathan Gold is the first writer in the United States to win the Pulitzer Prize for food criticism. His reviews can reverse the decline of old establishments and make the most prestigious restaurants plummet. Behind this work that makes people love and hate each other, is his pursuit of taste and the craft of writing reviews: practice thousands of times, still need to understand the cultural background of foods he doesn’t like, and finally let the words feel like food in the mouth Spreading out. The camera follows him around Los Angeles' common snacks and star-rated restaurants, and looks at how food ingredients and family recipes serve as cultural carriers to pass on memories.
