"My day is really different every day, and I'm really overwhelmed, and if anybody has advice on how to streamline anything, have at it. If you read the newsletter, you know she's quickly become one of the busiest people in New York City - popping from event to restaurant to meeting. Her schedule demands near-constant city-traversing - from midtown to South Slope and back, over and over."
"Sundberg sees dining out as an essential to her newsletter and has found herself reveling in the details at restaurants - from what paper a menu is printed on to the kinds of speakers at a new bar. This week, she managed to eat in three boroughs (plus cookies from home on Long Island)."
"I put regular milk in my coffee now - organic whole milk. I used to use a soy creamer, but it wasn't for me because of all the extra binders. Whatever the sweetest coffee creamer is in the vicinity is what wins. If I'm at a 7-Eleven on Long Island, it's going to be Coffee Mate."
Emily Sundberg, creator of the widely-read Substack newsletter Feed Me, leads an intensely demanding lifestyle centered around New York City dining and events. She frequently travels across multiple boroughs, attending restaurants and meetings while carefully documenting details like menu printing and bar aesthetics for her newsletter. Sundberg acknowledges her schedule is chaotic and seeks advice on streamlining her routine. Despite the overwhelm, she embraces the lifestyle as essential to her work. Her daily habits include regular coffee rituals at nearby establishments, visiting Mr. Kiwi almost daily with her husband, and establishing herself as a regular at various restaurants throughout the city, including Pho John Street near her Financial District office.
