Most Obsessive Restaurant Informant

Who knows how she does it, but food writer Marcia Gagliardi, of the Tablehopper restaurant website, packs more dish into her Tuesday email newsletters than a china shop. She regularly scoops the Chron on new openings and chef gossip, reviews just-opened spots and offers event listings for foodies. If you need a restaurant recommendation, her “Tips Please” service is beyond helpful. Just answer a few simple questions (occasion, party size, budget) and she’ll promptly email you a spot-on suggestion free of charge—for now.
