Chron Writers Win AFJ Awards

​This weekend, the Association of Food Journalists ― one of the two major professional organizations for food writers ― announced the winners of its annual awards. Bay Area writers took home three prizes:

The Chronicle's Michael Bauer won first place in the "Best Newspaper Restaurant Criticism" category. Chron writers also won two out of three of the awards in the "Best Newspaper Food Feature (200,000+ circulation)" category: Georgeanne Brennan won second for "A Chicken in Every Pot," and Janny Hu was awarded third place for "A Slam-Dunk Thanksgiving."

The AFJ website appears to be down right now, but Eater National has posted the full list of award winners, which include quite a few of SFoodie's alt-weekly colleagues. Congratulations to all!
