Gael Greene, food critic at New York Magazine, is gone

" Greene is often credited with popularizing the term “foodie,” which she used in a column in New York in 1980. (In 2012, she noted how the word had since gained a place “on everybody’s list of toxic words in food writing… When I said it, it was a wonderful thing to be.”)"

She was a wonderful sensual restaurant critic during her time at New York Magazine. And forget about going unnoticed. You knew she was in the dining room with all her flamboyance intact.
