Hold the tomatoes, please. Photo: Gilbert Carrasquillo/GC Images Anna, the new Anna Wintour biography, is 430 pages long. Author Amy Odell spent four years working on it, interviewing more than 250 sources. It is the most definitive text on the Vogue editor-in-chief’s life to date, and it’s filled with fascinating details, like the time Wintour’s colleagues allegedly saw her throwing out pennies while she was working as an editor here at New York.
I understand that, as an editor, it is Wintour’s job to make cuts, to highlight the best qualities of any given thing, and to trim away the distractions. But I worry her subjective preferences in this case have gotten in the way of Objective Truth: that tomatoes always belong in this salad.
Equipped with a full understanding of the situation, I knew what needed to happen next: I would have to order this lunch for myself. There was a beefsteak-size pause on the other end of the line. “So,” the host began, “you just want the mozzarella … with the lettuce leaves …?” He sounded confused and mildly distressed.Okay then. My order would be ready in 20 minutes. After tax and tip, lunch cost me $77.33.
Because I don’t have an assistant , I was forced to make do for myself. I got a recycled paper plate and some plastic silverware from our office kitchen and found an empty conference room where I could sit, partly to spare my colleagues from any wafting meat aromas, and also because I wanted to pretend that, like Wintour herself, I had a huge office with a view.
Sooooo cheese?
EmiliaPetrarca This is my go to outside of peak tomato season and it’s delicious! Good balsamic for brightness and acidity. Also, she’s prob watching her carbs.
EmiliaPetrarca I’m not even clicking on this it’s so dumb
EmiliaPetrarca So… she eats a plate of cheese?
EmiliaPetrarca Ok, in Italy we call it simply mozzarella.
EmiliaPetrarca again that Anna Wintour prefer her caprese salad without tomatoes? No more please!!🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
