If you decide to have two foodie subscriptions, make them Gourmet and Bon Appetit. You will find that they are not redundant but rather complement each other. Bon Appetit is really much more heavy on the recipe side and brings a wider variety of day-to-day great cooking ideas and techniques. It is also a fabulous magazine as far as the restaurant reviews go. All the recipes are well researched, and I have never had a problem cooking or baking anything from Bon Appetit, on the contrary: most of the recipes I have tried, have been great successes and lasting favorites. The holiday special issues are always wonderful, each year the editors find new and wonderful ways to create that extra special holiday gathering. The overall quality of the magazine throughout the year is very high, in both writing, research and photography/grafics. This mag is worth the money.
Made my Thanksgiving! December 22, 2003

I was given the Thanksgiving issue as a gift and used many of the recipes to make my dinner. In fact, the only non-Bon Appetit menu item was the mashed potatoes. Everything was huge hit. I am going to subscribe now so I can use their recipes more often!
Good recipes, but in recent years variety has diminished February 12, 2003

I love Bon Appetit magazine, but I've noticed that in the past couple of years (since editorship changed), the recipes have not had much variety. I'm kind of tired of seeing the same recipes for pot roast over and over. I wish that Bon Appetit would really focus more on ethnic dining like some other magazines out there, such as Cooking Light. Also, the magazine is heavily centered around meat. I realize that America is a meat eating society, but cuisine should include vegetables and I'm not talking about broccoli smothered in a rich cheese sauce, but other delicious ways of preparing it. However, I have to say that whatever recipes I've tried have ALWAYS come out delicious and I know that if I ever try a recipe for the first time, I know that it will come out good.Hopefully Bon Appetit starts to realize that there is more to good dining than just prime rib and potatoes. My favorite issue was the Ethnic Restaurant issue back in September 2001 and I do hope they include more of such things. It is a good magazine however no matter what and I would recommend it to anyone who likes good food.
Practical recipes and a fun online community too! December 10, 2002

Each issue of Bon Appetit is filled with recipes that make home cooking interesting. Articles on topics related to food, wine, restaurants, and travel provide some light reading, but the emphasis is on recipes ranging from simple ideas for dishes based on store-bought ingredients to elaborate meals entirely from scratch. Most are geared toward those of us who have some cooking experience but also have a life outside the kitchen, and allow you to achieve surprisingly good results with relatively little effort. The recipes are seasonal and often trendy, but not weird; ingredients can usually be found in well-stocked supermarkets. One of the best features isn't even in the magazine - it's the way all the recipes are available for review on the Epicurious web site. If you like Amazon reader reviews, you will love Epicurious recipe reviews, which let you reap the benefit of a whole community's experience with each recipe. Subscribing to Bon Appetit gives you the best of both worlds - a magazine you can read at your leisure, wherever you like, and a community of cooks with whom to share ideas if you wish.
