Raymond Sokolov — the journeyman food writer who has recently been penning restaurant reviews for the Wall Street Journal — has decided to leave his post, the New York Times reports. He quit after the paper announced it would abandon opinion-driven restaurant reviews in favor of food trend stories.
In recent years, the New York Daily News has also shed its restaurant reviewer.
Sokolov is the writer who called the Ghetto Burger at Ann’s Snack Bar the best burger in the country. The “trendiest” burger in the country, it is not.
