- Ashmead's Kernel apples may not be pretty, but they have "the most intense, complex flavor of any fruit in the world."
- Harvest whites for the season include Hungary's Tokaj and Italy's Campania.
- The ins, outs and tasty recipes for Chinese Bao -- "chewy-soft" steamed and stuffed buns.
- Los Angeles has a lot of new dining spots in the works, ranging from a second location for Umami Burger to the upcoming Cafe Habana.
- Restaurants: Venice's AK has become the Tasting Kitchen, with a "magic chef" and hunger-inducing dishes, and LA's Amalia morphs rustic Guatemalan cooking into "urbane cuisine."
- The end of Gourmet, and more love for the fallen mag.
