Noëmie Carrant

Senior Writer & Editor

Noëmie is a founding member of the Resy Editorial team with highly opinionated thoughts on croissants and cookies (amongst many other things), which she entirely blames on her upbringing: She’s a French-Taiwanese-American writer who grew up in Paris, whose dad works in wine, whose French grandparents were charcutiers, and whose mother is a baker with a cookie shop in Paris’ 2ème arrondissement (it’s called Cookie Love, check it out). In a previous life, Noëmie had a brief stint as an ad woman, worked FOH at a constantly packed French restaurant, at Paris’ first-ever spritz bar, and for French food magazine, Fricote.

(P.S. It’s pronounced “no-Amy.” As in zero Amies. Sorry if you’re an Amy.)

Fun Facts

  • Lives in
    Brooklyn, NY
  • First Resy ever made
    Estela in 2017.
  • Favorite slice in NYC
    Ceres, Fini, and Scarr’s have my heart right now. But if I want pizza within a 5-min walk from me, Carmine & Sons.
  • Drink of choice
    A dirty vodka martini. (Will dip into gin for Martiny’s blue cheese sake martini or Chateau Royale’s ice-cold Vesper, though.)
  • Favorite food movie
    “Tampopo.” But also, the bento box scene in “My Neighbor Totoro” is a core childhood memory.
  • Hot take
    Tteokbokki is kind of a pasta. (Sorry.)
  • Last meal on earth
    A Popeyes fried chicken sandwich topped with caviar. And a glass of milk with a stack of my mom’s cookies for dessert.
