US Buffet Restaurant & Food Hall Nominations for Newsweek Awards

Newsweek Readers' Choice As a reminder, I’m on the panel of travel and food journalists who chooses the nominations for Newsweek’s Readers Choice Awards. Two new categories I’m working on nominees for are now pending: Best Buffet Restaurant and Best Food Hall. Here’s what I’m looking for: - For best buffets: These are higher-quality food, outstanding service, etc., ideally widespread across the U.S. but really good regional spots are OK too. - For food halls: The food hall should be highly rated, but also include multiple vendors that are themselves highly rated, located in the US, and I’m focusing on geographic diversity (I want to try to represent the whole country), and it should not be a food court (located in a mall, airport, etc.). Food halls are typically their own destination. Guidelines: When pitching me, email me at [email redacted] - do NOT just hit reply on this newsletter. Give your email a subject line that makes it clear which story you are pitching me for.
