Another palette cleansing episode to refresh the soul. Alyssa is all things food and drink in Champaign-Urbana. I've lived here my entire life, and I learned more in under an hour than I have in a decade of adulting from this human sparkler.

 Listen as this Orlando, FL transplant talks living in the biggest tourist trap in our nation, maintaining anonymity while testing area restaurants, the changing donut scene, donut as a primary food group, local favorite eating categories, how to politely and publicly review food and beverage, the grit and determination it takes to be in the restaurant business, farmer's markets, payment and freebies and finally the ins-and-out of writing for the popular local media resource, Smile Politely.
