What's it like to be a food writer? What's it like dining at some of the world's best restaurants, as well as some of the worst? What's it like to share your
opinions about food and restaurants with readers around the world?
Best known for her work as the restaurant critic at the
New York Times,
in Eating My Words,
Mimi Sheraton describes how she developed her passion for writing about food and travel. She relates her experiences, from how she landed the job there to why she left eight years later. As a journalist, she has tasted and reported on some of the world's finest cuisine, including three-star French restaurants, and on some of the most dismal food imaginable.
Mimi Sheraton is one of the most renowned food writers and restaurant
reviewers in the country. In
Eating My Words: An Appetite for Life
(her fourteenth book),
the doyenne of food critics provides a heartfelt look at the events
of her extraordinary life.
Fueled by her passion for food, wine and travel, Mimi Sheraton's memoir is a
true reflection of this bon vivant's voracious appetite for life.

We will enjoy extraordinarily creative cuisine at Seasons. Executive Chef Robert Sulatycky’s cooking shows a deep respect for the ingredients, which to him means shopping the world for the highest quality products and celebrating their natural form and essential flavors on the palate. As you enjoy the extraordinarily creative cuisine you will also delight in the surroundings of Seasons restaurant, which is as opulent a dining room as you will find in the city. The seventh-floor location affords a grand view of Chicago’s sweeping avenues.
Zagat’s 2002/2003 U.S. Hotels, Resorts and Spa Survey rated Seasons Restaurant first in Chicago for Food. Condé Nast Traveler magazine recently ranked Seasons Restaurant the third-best restaurant in Chicago in their second Restaurant Awards Reader’s Poll. Recently named Chicago’s “Most Romantic Restaurant,” Seasons restaurant has also received the AAA Five Diamond Award.
Price is $125.00 per person, for members, or $135.00 for non-members, inclusive.
