Though she was born in the San Francisco Bay Area, Kim Ranjbar took her passion for the written word and dragged it over 2000 miles to flourish in the city she loves. For well over a decade, she's been eating, photographing and writing about food (and more!) in New Orleans, her work appearing in local publications such as French Quarter Journal, Where Y'at Magazine, New Orleans Living Magazine, NewOrleans.com and Louisiana Kitchen & Culture.
