Author Sylvie Hogg Murphy on “A Food Lover’s Guide to Kansas City”
It’s a funny thing when a travel writer turns her eyes to a new hometown and discovers (not unlike Frommers) that it’s a destination unto itself. Sylvie Hogg Murphy, the author of “A Food Lover’s Guide to Kansas City,” moved here in 2008 after meeting her now-husband, a native son of Kansas City.
“I absolutely love living in Kansas City and proudly play the role of cheerleader for my new Midwestern hometown,” says Murphy.
The freelance writer, who has been writing travel guides primarily about Italy for the past decade and is currently penning several titles for Frommers, released her book on the KC eating scene last month. Fat City caught up with the Waldo author to discover what’s inside her latest guide.
