Sofia Marchetti — Food & Dining

Sofia Marchetti covers food and dining for Orlando Citizen — the openings and closings that redraw the region’s restaurant map, and what official inspection records say about the kitchens behind them.

Openings and closings are verified against the business, its landlord or its official channels before they run; inspection results come from Florida DBPR records, reported as the record reads. Her beat is tied to the Citizen’s Top Businesses rankings: when a story touches a ranked category, it links the ranking and the winner’s feature, so a reader can go from the news to the table.

Sofia Marchetti is a staff byline of the Orlando Citizen newsroom.
