Ep 121 Julia Chen Senior Staff Writer and Restaurant Reviewer at The Infatuation SF

Julia Chen has my dream job! (though it does seem like a lot more work than I realized) She is a Senior staff writer at the restaurant recommendation site The Infatuation. (no, the similarity of our media names did not escape us)! Julia eats out in SF 6-10 times a week and writes reviews for The Infatuation website. The Infatuation has quickly become my favorite restaurant recommendation site! Coming back to co-host for a third time is my student Sydney!  The three of us came up with some San Francisco Asian restaurant recommendations for various prompts like, the best under $10 bite, best Asian splurge, 2nd date spots, our favorite Asian comfort food spots, late-night grub, and more! You can read Julia’s reviews over at https://www.theinfatuation.com/san-francisco If you’re not in SF, look for The Infatuation in a city near you 11 different cities in the US plus London, and has dozens of articles from cities all over the world!  You can follow Julia’s local account on social @infatuation_sf  Some of the SF restaurants mentioned in this part of the episode:  Noodle In A Haystack Bodega SF Dumpling Zone Saigon Sandwiches StiX Ken-SF Thai Farmhouse Kitchen  Dumpling Story Marugame Udon The Empress by Boon Old Mandarin Hon’s Wun Tun House Kevin’s Noodle House Cafe Bakery VIP Coffee and Cake Shop D and A Cafe Cocobang SF Na Ya Dessert Cafe Tai Shan Cuisine Lucky Chances Cafe As I always mention, you can write to us at: ⁠[email protected]⁠, and please follow us on Instagram and Facebook @infatuasianpodcast  Our Theme: “Super Happy J-Pop Fun-Time” by Prismic Studios was arranged and performed by All Arms Around  Cover Art and Logo designed by Justin Chuan @w.a.h.w (We Are Half the World) #theinfatuation #asianfood #sanfranciscofood #chineseamerican #asianpodcast #asian #asianamerican #infatuasian #infatuasianpodcast #aapi #veryasian  #asianamericanpodcaster #representationmatters
