With a bit of persistence, I tracked down Hugue Dufour and his wife-to-be Sarah Obraitis and their stash of tourtière, traditional pies filled with guinea hen, brisket, pork, and turkey. The couple recently settled in Long Island City, near P.S. 1, and are planning to make over the borough, one meaty treat at a time.
Calling all food fanatics—snap happy restaurant bloggers, chefs, home cooks, and plain old eaters alike—to Moveable Feast’s first Meal of the Moment contest.
Napa Valley has gotten a bad rap among certain crowds for being all flash and booze buses, but Molly Hill, a winemaker at Sequoia Grove right on St. Helena Highway, is turning out some of the most delicious affordable ($30) bottles we've tasted. After the jump, she gives us eight reasons to keep Napa on our dance cards.
This time of year, when bartenders are going grog-crazy and spice-happy, I pass on the seasonal specials
'Tis the season of out-of-town friends emailing for New York eating advice. Happily, giving restaurant suggestions is one of my main joys in life. My first tip: think lunch.
I swear, 2009 is the year of the fruitcake. What are your favorite holiday treats?
When Chef Roy Choi isn't playing around with new flavor combinations for Kogi (currently he's developing hot drinks with spices like ginger and tamarind), you can track him down at some of his regular LA spots. Here, his list of favorite dishes—and when to eat them.
Beaver Creek Resort and Bon Appétit magazine are teaming up for the annual Beaver Creek Master Chef Classic this January 28-30, three days of culinary seminars, chef challenges, and celebrations of good food (oh, and some skiing if you want to hit world-class slopes).
These days, it seems like the whole world has gone truck crazy. In New York we've got everything from schnitzel to cupcakes, but in Los Angeles it's all about the tacos. That's in part due to Caroline Shin-Manguera, Mark Manguera, and Roy Choi, the trio behind Kogi BBQ, the tweet-happy Korean taco truck sensation. We know they've got portable food mastered, but what do they eat when they're not doling out short rib tacos and pastrami dogs?
New York's Luke's Lobster has fast become a Traveler favorite for its marvelous but cheap ($14!) lobster rolls.
Healdsburg has long been a wine country favorite, a low-key alternative to Napa trolley booze tours and faux Italian villas. Lukka Feldman and his family run one of the area’s best restaurants, Barndiva, as well as collection of small cottages that go for an ultra-reasonable $275 a night.
With the first English version of I Know How to Cook—famed Chocolate & Zucchini blogger Clotilde Dusoulier has breathed a little contempo life (less butter, for example) into Ginette Mathiot's recipes
One of my favorite farm dinner experiences? Austin's Dai Due Supper Club. Chef Jesse Griffiths and his wife Tamara Mayfield are "cultivating a more conscientious food culture in Central Texas" by throwing dinner parties that support local, responsible farmers.
In San Francisco, "tequila-loving bartenders have been swapping out bourbon and Scotch for south-of-the-border spirits" in their cocktails—vintage recipes included.
I just came across another covetable garden accessory: the Hudson Valley Seed Library's Art Packs. Each contains a packet of a local seed variety—Fox Cherry Tomato, Ruby Queen Beet, Spotted Trout Lettuce—and a small illustration by a Hudson Valley artist. I'm buying them for all my green-thumbed friends.
The year-old One Flew South, in Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, is a restaurant and bar from the team behind Louisville’s storied Seelbach Hotel (home of one of the country’s best bars).
Poking around on the New York Times's video page over lunch (I was culinary day-dreaming while crunching down on a vending machine-procured meal of Cheese-Its), I came across "Eggs in Purgatory."
Today's Meal of the Moment comes courtesy of deputy news editor Deborah Dunn: "It's a squash blossom empanada (Oaxacan style), horchata topped with cactus flower sorbet, and the most addictive chips and salsa I've had in ages."
The rock star butcher phenomenon is alive and well, with chefs and home cooks across the country lining up to buy meat or learn the trade from an elite group of tattooed carvers.
