I love this mag! January 15, 2002 6 out of 8 found this review helpful
One of the most mouth watering cookery magazine out there...This magazine will make you want to get out of your secluded house and taste what life has to offer. It takes you to the furthest reaches of Argentina and pulls you along a meander through a farm in Greece. Great stories, great pictures, and great recipes. There is no doubt that this is a fantastic magazine.
Recipes and Travel December 4, 2001 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
This magazine is simply beautiful. Excellent wine recommendations each month along with tips, reviews of new products (and where to buy them) and, of course, exquisite recipies, some of which may seem daunting but with some patience and a little preparation are very do-able. But the one aspect to this magazine that sets it apart from other culinary subscriptions lies in its globe-spanning reviews of regional cuisine from their editors (now, I want that job!). From Barcelona to neighborhoods in the Caribbean, "Saveur" tours intriguing locales letting readers explore the delights each region has to offer.
A "must have" magazine November 8, 2001 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
My hats off to the staff at Saveur. They put out one of the best magazines on the market. Quality is to be found on every page of this product. Saveur takes the reader out of the every day normalicy found in other cooking magazines and shows the reader the other side of food. I find at least one thing to try everytime I open a new issue. The recipes are easy to follow and for the most part the ingredients are always available at my local market. Pick up an issue and you will see what I mean.
Beautiful photography, Romantic Content October 28, 2001 6 out of 9 found this review helpful
The focus of Saveur seems to be more on the experience and essence of food, rather than recipes themselves. The photography is gorgeous and the articles elevate the topics to Romantic levels. I am a true food lover, but sometimes the tone of these articles gets to be a bit much in that the writer will go on and on in hyperbole about crabbing in the Chesapeake Bay or the olives of Italy -- to the point where I think a little credibility has been lost. Having said that, the articles are well-researched and always do include a handful of worthwhile and inspiring recipes. I have had great success with their recipes.
Good content, classy presentation! October 27, 2001 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
If everyone interested in cooking were to read this, France would probably disappear from the map as *the* "haute cuisine" destination. ;-)
Seriously, this is good stuff, with reviews, in depth articles, tips, where to buy this or that (including websites - very useful when you don't leave in NY or SF!)
It also doesn't concerns itself only with super complicated stuff. In fact, my favorite article was about cast iron skillets.
The pictures are great too, and the magazine is nice enough to be proudly displayed on your bookshelves.
This is fun to read and useful - highly recommended!
