If you read the Globe this Saturday you’ll know that Joanne Kates will be retiring from her position and the restaurant critic. Her final column will run next Saturday May 26.
If you were following the buzz on Twitter you heard the rumours days before.
I thought that if you hadn’t seen the update in Toronto Life you might enjoy reading this scan of her very first piece (or you can download it from the Toronto Life page).
And if you hadn’t heard the news (being sheltered from food critics over the long weekend) you’d want to look for her last column next Saturday, May 26.
Joanne is passing the critical eating gig to Chris Nuttall-Smith, they will be part of a live on-line chat this coming Monday.
