Sous Vide in the City: How Digital Dining Feeds Us

#sxsw #SousVide

Americans seem just as obsessed with food as they are technology, but how is our near constant state of connectivity influencing what chefs put on the menu? How is our geographical density and propensity for moving from one urban area to another changing our expectations for eating out and even going to the grocery store? The Food Network used to have a monopoly on food-as-entertainment, but now the most interesting developments in the food world are either at our fingertips on Facebook/Instagram/Twitter or in some pop-up restaurant in a warehouse. How can chefs and food entrepreneurs keep up with customers' expectations, and how can new food businesses stand out in an increasingly competitive industry?

Austin American-Statesman

As a columnist for the Austin American-Statesman, Addie Broyles covers everything from cookbooks and recipes to farmers markets, trends and food businesses in the Wednesday food section and on her Austin360 blog, Relish Austin.

At home, when she’s not chasing after her two young sons, the Ozarks native and University of Missouri graduate writes about women and food at TheFeministKitchen.com and is the special projects chair of the Austin Food Blogger Alliance.

In April 2013, the History Press published “The Austin Food Blogger Alliance Cookbook,” a community cookbook that Broyles spearheaded and whose production she oversaw.

Relish Austin, the column and food blog she writes for the Austin American-Statesman, won a National Headliner Award in 2012 and honors from the Society of Features Journalism and the Texas Associated Press Managing Editors.

In 2011, Addie was named by Tribeza magazine as one of the top 10 Austinites to watch.
