Our Authors

The blog articles on GUSTOwebzine are written by a small, hand-picked group of freelance writers who share one thing in common: a genuine passion for food, drink, gastronomy, and the stories behind every great meal.

Each contributor brings their own background and beat to the publication. Together, they cover the topics that matter most to our readers, with the independence and depth that only good freelance journalism can offer.

Claire Beaumont

Claire Beaumont grew up in Lyon's bouchon culture, where Sunday lunches lasted three hours and every dish told a story. She trained at Institut Paul Bocuse before turning to food writing, covering classical French technique, regional produce, and Europe's evolving restaurant scene. Her work is elegant, precise, and always deeply rooted in the craft behind the plate.

Diego Reyes

Diego Reyes grew up in the markets of Oaxaca and studied culinary arts in Mexico City before becoming one of Latin America's most respected food journalists. He writes about the depth and complexity of Mexican cuisine, from ancient mole traditions to the boundary-pushing restaurants of Colonia Roma. His work celebrates Mexico's UNESCO-recognised culinary heritage with passion and rigour.

Kenji Nakamura

Kenji Nakamura was born into a family of ramen makers in Osaka and moved to Tokyo to study food science at Waseda University. He writes about Japan's extraordinary culinary precision, from three-Michelin-star kaiseki temples to the perfect bowl of tonkotsu at a standing bar. His work bridges ancient Japanese food philosophy with the city's relentless culinary innovation.

Lars Eriksen

Lars Eriksen grew up foraging wild herbs on the Danish coast with his grandmother, long before foraging became a culinary movement. He studied gastronomy at the University of Copenhagen and has spent two decades documenting the New Nordic revolution from the inside. From Noma's legacy to the next generation of Copenhagen chefs redefining what seasonal and sustainable really means, Lars writes with the quiet authority of someone who was there from the beginning.

Yasmine Alaoui

Yasmine Alaoui grew up in the medinas of Marrakech, where the scent of cumin and preserved lemon was as familiar as morning light. She studied food anthropology in Paris before returning to Morocco to document the country's rich culinary heritage. Her writing explores the crossroads of Amazigh, Arab, and Mediterranean food traditions, bringing the soul of North African cuisine to a global audience.
