Since the rise of fast-form, video-based social content, we\u2019ve been \u2018robbed\u2019 of honest restaurant reviews. We\u2019ve traded hard graft for hype, and the beauty of the written word for the \u2018like\u2019 button. It\u2019s a landscape where the algorithm dictates our appetite, leaving us with a digital dining scene that\u2019s lost its soul. Joseph saw this digital decay and decided to go analog. He\u2019s created a nostalgic enclave for those who love restaurants and the written word - a space to retreat to without the distraction of the internet. It is a quarterly magazine that acts as a \u2018heat lamp\u2019 on the city\u2019s most delicious corners. Written by those at the hospitality coal face - the chefs, the makers, and the late-night diners - The Pass is not just a newspaper; it\u2019s a quiet celebration of the grit-and-all restaurant scene. In an era where print is supposedly \u2018dying,\u2019 Joseph is paying homage to newsprint, rescuing our tastebuds from the scroll. In this episode, we\u2019ll delve into the \u2018heat lamp\u2019 philosophy, the brutal honesty needed to review your peers, and why the most radical thing you can do in 2026 is put down your phone and pick up a paper. Tuck in. ","author_name":"People Doing Things","author_url":"http:\/\/edlittle.co.uk\/","html":"
