EATER SAN DIEGO YEAR END WRAP-UP, Part 8: Food Writers Sum Up the 2016 Restaurant World in One Word

December 31, 2016 mgardiner

In the last part, Part 8, of Eater San Diego’s year end restaurant wrap-up ask we were asked to sum up the 2016 San Diego restaurant scene in a single word:  http://sandiego.eater.com/2016/12/30/14118282/local-food-writers-sum-up-the-2016-restaurant-world-in-one-word

My word was “millennials.”  My answer was a bit longer than that, but that’s the only word that Eater SD published (I suspect some of my fellow contributing food writers went on a bit more at length too, but all any of us got published was our one word).  Here’s the rest of my answer:

“Millennials. We love to hate ‘em. They’ve taken over our internet, we’re increasingly having to dance to their tune and they’re destroying our workplaces. And in San Diego in 2016 they began to take over our restaurants too. From Willy Eick at 608 to Brad Wise at TRUST Restaurant, the story of the San Diego restaurant world in 2016 has been the young guns moving in. Even when Cork & Craft loses Phillip Ian Esteban they replace him with fellow millennial hot shot Scott Cannon.”
