'Independent' writer wins top food award
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Caroline Stacey of The Independent won the restaurant critic prize last night at Britain's most prestigious food and drink media awards.
Judges for the Glenfiddich Food and Drink Awards praised her "well-researched, consistent, high-quality, informative and entertaining" articles.
The panel added: "There is nothing except marmalade she will not eat, no bread roll she will leave untouched in her quest for good food". The prize is Stacey's second Glenfiddich award. She was awarded previously for her work at Time Out magazine 16 years ago.
Terry Durack, of the Independent on Sunday's Sunday Review, was shortlisted in the same category.
Three other Independent and Independent on Sunday writers were shortlisted for the annual awards: Michael Bateman in the newspaper cookery writer category for his work in Sunday Review; and in the drink writer section Michael Jackson, for The Independent, and Richard Ehrlich, for the Sunday Review.
Mr Jackson wrote an article asking whether ales were as fine as wine, and Mr Ehrlich wrote about fruit smoothies and making coffee.
