Elly Sun

Elly writes the Lulu Wild journal, which means she has the best job in the building: eating her way through the menu, digging into the stories behind Chinese food culture, and keeping track of everything happening at the restaurant on the water’s edge at Brindleyplace.

Her beat runs from the origins of dim sum and the legends behind mooncakes to the practical stuff: where to brunch in Birmingham, how to hold chopsticks without embarrassing yourself, and what to order on a first date. If it involves Chinese food, Birmingham or both, she has probably written about it below.
