In a city where it seems most everyone drives everywhere, two sisters lead a taste tour, on foot.
But a trip on the light rail can be just as delicious.
Now that Gourmet is gone -- and with it, Ruth Reichl -- Bon Appétit editor-in-chief Barbara Fairchild steps into the spotlight at Condé Nast.

Drinking juice at breakfast? You might as well be chugging soda.

Daniel Boulud, in Film and Conversation, on the Importance of Seasonal Cooking

If cooking is the way to one's heart, Daniel Boulud should be able to attribute much of his success to his understanding of food. "I think that every restaurant is the chef's soul," he says in documentary "A Certain Taste for America."

In an ongoing series entitled "Art de Vivre: The Art of Eating Today," led by the French Institute in New York City on Monday, a screening of the film (very doting on Boulud) was followed by a panel discussion reflecting upon the art of eating and, more specifically, the importance of sustainability and sourcing food.

As a world-renowned chef hailing from a small hamlet outside Lyon, Boulud has achieved his veritable empire -- 10 successful restaurants based in New York, Palm Beach, Las Vegas, Vancouver and Beijing -- by striving to keep a strict culinary focus on seasonal cooking and high-quality ingredients.

More on Boulud's rise to fame, and the panel discussion on sustainable produce, obesity in America, seasonal cooking and its debatable expenses, after the jump.

Bon App�tit celebrates 50 years

I've gotta start keeping better tabs on the food monthlies.

I just learned from yesterday's Palm Beach Post that Bon Appétit is celebrating its Golden Anniversary. The Post features a fascinating interview with the magazine's editor, Barbara Fairchild. Amid her addressing such topics as whether people still cook today or live vicariously through celebrity chefs (her answer, a definite yes, her readership still cooks) is an interesting nugget of information.

When asked to name an iconic American meal she didn't pick Roast Turkey with Herb Butter and Caramelized-Onion Gravy; Chili-Rubbed Rib-Eye Steak, Pico de Gallo, and Red Chili Onion Rings, or any of the other wonderful recipes culled from Bon Appétit's archives that are featured in this month's issue.

Rather she told the Post that the classic American meal was "Roast chicken and mashed potatoes." Here's to keeping things simple in the kitchen and to a very happy 50th birthday.
