TableCritic Inc. Reviewers

Justin Cambria

Justin developed his interest in food by writing through the web from using Yelp when he lived in New York, and it has been an enjoyable hobby ever since. He has reviewed over 300 places on the Yelp site as a means of tracking his eating travels and sharing those experiences with friends and whoever else may want to read them. He has always had an interest in writing as an English major in college, and a newspaper editor in high school, and his interest in eating well and understanding where food comes from and how the restaurant industry works provided a nice way to tie these things together. He is also an avid squash playerer and golfer, depending on the season.

Elaine Hom

Elaine spent years in Boston's fine dining industry, working in various positions including the kitchen, hostess, server and even managing events. By day, she's a technology editor, and by night, she's either cooking, dining out, or watching the Food Network. When not eating, Elaine is an avid singer/dancer, and you can see her performing in musical theaters all over the Boston area.
