The Grog Index
A somewhat serious framework for figuring out what’s actually worth eating on the road.
Hello, I'm Skylar, a writer and photographer based in Seattle, WA.
Most of my work sits at the intersection of narrative non-fiction and documentary, with food, alcohol, and people as the primary subjects. To get a better sense of my work, take a look through my writing and photography archives.
My newsletter, The Daily Grog, is for people who live somewhere between white tablecloths and plastic stools.Sign up (via Substack) to join the group.
The Daily Grog is a 100% reader-supported labor of love (and occasional despair). If you're a really cool person, paid members get extra perks:
- A free fine art print from my shop.
- Access to my travel app.
- Behind the scenes work.
It’s basically buying me a beer once a month, and I promise to send stories and photos in return.
