Janice Leung Hayes is a food writer and social entrepreneur with a deep love of food - its sources, makers, sellers and eaters. Her writing can be found in publications such as the South China Morning Post, New York Times, Monocle, Wall Street Journal, Australian Gourmet Traveller and eater.com, and she produces work in other formats including online video, cinema and radio. Under her food sustainability platform Honestly Green, she also organises Tong Chong Street Market, a farmers' market encouraging food-focused sustainability and innovation, in the commercial precinct of Taikoo Place in Hong Kong. Born in Hong Kong and raised in Melbourne, food has been central to how she discovers (and rediscovers) local cultures, and she hopes to bring this approach to her food pieces in Zolima CityMag.
