As someone who endured four years of cafeteria food courtesy of Sodexho, I found news of their new partnership with
acclaimed Indian chef Suvir Saran kind of exciting. Saran has garnered all sorts of praise at his New York City
restaurant Devi, and will now serve as a consultant for the 120K employee food
service giant. Saran's official title will be "international concept and brand development partner,"
according to a Sodexho press release. Apparently Saran
will work with Sodexho chefs to create modified versions of the recipes in his Indian Home Cooking cookbook. Superchefblog has more, as does Food Business
Review Online.

3-27-2006 @4:38PM Foodie Reader said... It's good that you have started to more clearly identify your sources, such as Superchefblog (where you also probably found the Food Business Review Online, mentioned there).
Now, just take the last step towards professionalism in your postings, so that you state your source clearly from the first. In this case, you should start with the statement that "Suvir Saran is partnering with Sodexho, reports Superchefblog," followed by your personal experience, followed by your observation(s).
You're getting there!

Actually, I have an rss feed for Food Business Review that I check fairly regularly, so that's how I initially found out about the Sodexho deal. From there I just Googled it and found the Superchefblog post as well as the Sodexho press release. As for starting out with personal opinion, I think that's ok on a blog sometimes, as the whole format is more conversational than, say, a newspaper or a trade magazine.

- Statement of fact/s (who, what, where, when, why, how): Suvir Saran is partnering with Sodexho, reports [source/Superchfeblog].
- SlashFood author's personal experience/s.
- SlashFood author's personal comments.
Keep at it!
