Really good recipes April 27, 2005 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
When I was going through my old cooking magazines a few years ago before a major move to another state, I found to my surprise that the recipes I most wanted to keep were in Bon Appetit. Although I also enjoyed reading Gourmet, I realized that I had cooked relatively few of the recipes in that magazine. I am ready to make another magazine purge, and I expect the same thing to happen. Gourmet is fun and interesting, but Bon Appetit is a keeper.
I love to go from page to page....... March 22, 2005 40 out of 44 found this review helpful
I've recently started reading my Bon Appetit from cover to cover just because everything is so good (pictures, recipes, articles, etc...). Having three small busy children, my time is limited for meals during the week and my favorite section of this book is "Fast Easy Fresh". I can always find a few recipes that are easy to make yet edible in the eyes of my children. My second favorite section is "Readers' Timesaving Recipes". These readers seem to share the same type of lifestyle as me (limited kitchen time) and they submit very yummy, quick recipes that I can whip up in no time.
My husband and I believe that dinnertime as a family is so important to the well-being of our children that making meals that require endless preparation and cooking just isn't a priority for us.
I also love to entertain and have dinner parties so the new column that begins in the April 2005 issue entitled "Party Improv" is a great addition. I like that they give big, delicious ideas with little effort... including suggestions for table settings, cocktail concoctions, music, wine and a complete menu for your party!!! They thought of it all!
I highly suggest getting your subscription today so you don't miss out on any future issues!
next to eggs and butter its a staple December 23, 2004 7 out of 11 found this review helpful
Its the only subscription that hasn't been cancelled in 15 years. Some issues seem to have been designed for our tastes, but even those that may not cater to our palate (hey, variety is the spice of life - and we're pretty close to omnivorous, but we have our favorites)include at least a couple of dishes that call our name. We understand that advertising helps to pay the bills, but unlike some of the others, the majority of this magazine's content is recipes. For that we are grateful.
A nice middle ground December 1, 2004 11 out of 13 found this review helpful
I have had several subscriptions to different cooking magazines during my marriage and this is the best middle ground for my family. I love Gourmet. I like to cook Gourmet, but my family refuses to eat Gourmet. My family prefers Taste of Home. I have found that Bon Appetit is a nice middle ground. It allows me to cook the interesting recipes I want while still being able to get my family to eat it.
3rd at best November 9, 2004 7 out of 14 found this review helpful
Spent quite a few issues comparing Bon Apetit to Gourmet and Food & Wine and I felt that Bon Apetit was by far the third horse in this field. The writing is mediocre and the pictures show food the way you've seen it a million times. Very little special, what tried to be editorially special read more pretentious to me. I know it's been around for a long time but I didn't find much to give me any interest to buy it again.
