Adam Robb

Adam Robb is a writer and photographer living in New York. He has more than a decade of on-the-ground reporting experience, from the gilded butcher shops of Sydney, to the pepper trees of Sichuan, and the smoky back rooms of Vienna's most notorious nightclubs.

Experience: Adam Robb began his food writing journey with @restaurantgirl, an early parody Twitter account that skewered contemporary food writing. The account went viral and was featured in the New York Times and on "Page Six" of the New York Post.

After two years of local reporting for his hometown Jersey Journal, Adam was named city editor for Thrillist Philly and Thrillist AC in 2012.

He's spent the past ten years covering the dining scene near and far, as a contributing writer and photographer for local New York publications including the Village Voice and Grub Street, while traveling abroad for national titles including T: The New York Times Style Magazine, WSJ Magazine, Architectural Digest, Conde Nast Traveler, Departures, Food & Wine, GQ, Travel + Leisure, and Whisky Advocate.

Since 2021, Adam has begun to incorporate investigative reporting into coverage of the hospitality industry, for publications including The Intercept, and Billy Penn, an affiliate of WHYY public radio in Philadelphia.
