Non-common occupations should be generally linked. Even if being a gastronome is not, being a food writer is.

/* Death */A colony has been used prior to the previous quote, so it should be done here as well. It's about being consistent.

/* Death */Similar to the colony used in the previous quote.

/* Death */"Wrote" is the best choice because it is neutral and factual, simply stating that Le Figaro published the text. "Said" is usually used for spoken words, which is less fitting for a written article. "Commented" suggests an opinion or analysis rather than a formal obituary. "Wrote" keeps it straightforward and accurate.
