With each May issue, the Bon Appétit team looks some of the world’s greatest travel destinations and the food that defines those areas of the world. Past issues have include Mexico, Ireland […]

With all of the cookbooks and magazines that feature Italian cooking, one would think it would be very difficult to get noticed in the midst of them all. La Cucina Italiana, however, always manages to make its voice heard.
The February 2007 issue of the magazine (still on news-stands) provides plenty of recipes and articles to […]

An avid baker, I don’t think there’s anything I like to bake more than a good cookie. When I saw the February 2007 issue of Martha Stewart Living, I literally heard the Pecan Linzer Cookies on the magazine’s last page calling me.  What is it about the cookie that has me so ensnared? Maybe it’s their […]

Very little excites me as much as seeing the latest issue of Bon Appétit magazine in my mailbox. The photographs alone are enough to get anyone through the cold winter nights!

La Cucina Italiana is always a pleasure to leaf through as the magazine does a fantastic job of focussing on every aspect of a meal. There’s a consistently strong emphasis on […]

If the cover of the September 2006 issue of Saveur Magazine isn’t enough to make you stop and pick up a copy, then the contents will surely do the trick.

The magazine’s FARE section has a number of interesting tidbits, including a look at Ostermalms Saluhall, a 118-year-old food hall in downtown Stockholm, Sweden, and a […]

If you can resist the urge to snap up the June/July 2006 issue of Saveur after seeing the gorgeous cover, then you’re a stronger person than I am.
One look at the raspberries in cream sandwiched between two cookies and I was hooked. Although I must admit, it takes very little for me to grab the […]

The volume of publications out there that document Italian food, in all of its variety, is staggering. People like their Italian dishes and they love to read about them!
