Here’s a quick introduction to what it takes to build skills as a food critic. It’ a wiki, so if you want to add to it, go ahead.
I suppose I should try some of these things!
Travel to food and wine festivals, from first class to the obscure.
Study the art of cooking. Take cooking classes non-stop. You should attain a “chef” level in cooking as a goal.
Build your culinary vocabulary. Frequent fresh food markets and learn about produce and herb seasonings from all over the world.
