"food games" news and stories

Sometimes I wish I could go back and be a kid all over again these days. Because they are making some really cool stuff for kids right now. Take, for instance, this game that Matthew Amster-Burton wrote about today on Serious Eats. It is called Crazy Chefs and is a game where the point is for players to complete the dish on their card. They turn over tiles until they match up all the ingredients. When I was a kid there was nothing that made me happier than pretending to grocery shop, cook and eat my plastic creations. I particularly remember a plastic fried egg that I served to my parents over and over again. These tendencies are part of the reason it surprised no one when I started writing about food.
