Not for someone like me... November 11, 2008 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I received a free subscription to this magazine over the past year. While the recipes look decidant - they are not really something that I would make. I am a working mother of 2 small children, I don't really have time to come home from work and whip up a Gourmet Meal. The ingredients are also uncommon items that would need to be bought in specialty stores. I imagine that I should have guessed by the title that the magazine is not really in my cooking league. However, if you like to cook and use fancy ingredients - this is probably the magazine for you!

Just got my first issue and loved all the pictures of the food. Now i have two small kids and most likely wouldn't cook most of the food in the issue, but it doesn't mean i can't drool over it all. Overall a great magazine if you LOVE to see great food and read a few articles.

I have always enjoyed bon appitit magazine and couldn't resist the special price. It is a great magazine with lots of down-to-earth recipes and interesting information. However, I am somewhat perplexed that, 2 issues into my 1 year subscription, I got a notice saying that I have one issue remaining on my subscription.

Hooray for food porn! Bon Appetit is stuffed with tons of great glossy photos of attractive dishes... a foodie's dream come true!
I've had a subscription to Bon Appetit for about 4 years now, and it is my favorite of all the cooking magazines out there. It is not too high-end or snobby and for the most part you will be able to find the recipe ingredients at your local supermarket. The recipes are generally not too complicated so an amature cook can create a classy meal to impress guests, or just try new things in the kitchen for fun.
My one complaint would be it seems that the issues are beginning to contain slightly fewer recipes than before and it sometimes feels like their target audience is more of a priveledged high-class lifestyle than an everyday home cook.
That said, considering all of the competitors, I think Bon Appetit is the middle ground and I would recommend it to all aspiring home cooks.
Make a lady happy with a subscription July 26, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Amazon sometimes makes it hard to say "no" to spending money. I really wasn't interested in a magazine subscription, but I knew someone who I suspected would love a subscription to a cooking magazine. And by golly I was right. My sister-in-law is head over heels after only the first issue of bon appetit magazine. And yes I had ulterior motives. She is a fine cook and I knew I would get a meal or two out of the deal.
