 Appropriate for the genre, I suppose. . . October 30, 2001

My husband got me this magazine because he knows how I love to try new dishes and wines. Unfortunately, this magazine has a very different audience than what we expected. In any given issue I might find one or two recipes that catch my interest. The others are too "food and wine snobby" for me. In addition, the magazine tries to capture that jet set feeling by telling you all about Boston, New York and Napa Valley five star restaurants. As a working mom, I doubt that I'll be able to try them in the near future. In general, this one reminds me of the magazines you get at the airlines.
A great practical magazine October 29, 2001

There are more highly regarded cooking magazines out there, but this one works for me for one simple reason: The recipes are generally dishes that I enjoy cooking, and I have yet to get a dud out of here. For the somewhat ambitious amateur like myself, this magazine works well without being too obscure.
a must for the gourmet October 26, 2001

a friend got me subscription to food and wine for my birthday last year, and i look forward to it every month. it's great because it's set up for a variety of different kinds of readers. recipies are easy to find, and organized into several different categories, great if a reader wants to use the magazine as a cookbook. food and wine also has great bargain & collectable wine tips, and fun interviews with chefs, from famous to obscure. if you're into regional cuisine, food and wine covers more than the typical napa valley/provence circuit.
Great reading, great eating October 26, 2001

I'll admit, the first thing I do when I open a cooking magazine is flip through the recipe index to see which appetizers, entrees , or desserts I want to try in the coming weeks. With Food & Wine, there are always several dishes that sound scrumptious and are often easy to prepare (especially with their new quick meals feature). But unlike other food magazines, this one has articles that are just as delicious to savor. From descriptions of breakfast at a film shoot in Trinidad & Tobago to a writer's loving reminiscences of his ancient, creaky stove, each issue leaves an aftertaste that will make you hungry for more.
