Former chef to North Korean dictator dishes on change prospects with Kim Jong-un

Former chef to North Korean dictator dishes on change prospects with Kim Jong-un Nov 4th, 2010 at 8:00AM: It looks like Kim Jong-un will follow in the footsteps of his father, Kim Jong-il. This succession plan, of sorts, will extend the Kim dynasty in North Korea to a third generation, separating the top dog even further from the supposed revolutionary exploits of the country's first leader, Kim Il-sung. With new blood, of course, the question of change is inevitable. Under Kim Jong-il, there have ...

Lady in the House: Chef Anne-Sophie Pic's Simple Elegance

Lady in the House: Chef Anne-Sophie Pic's Simple Elegance Aug 12th, 2009 at 9:00AM: As someone who has done her fare share of cooking, I have mad respect for anyone undertaking the daily grind of working in a professional kitchen, let alone running one.

Take Chef Anne-Sophie Pic, for example, of the newly opened, ...

The Accidental Chef Travels: A culinary journey through Southwest France

The Accidental Chef Travels: A culinary journey through Southwest France Jul 22nd, 2009 at 9:00AM: "Here's to those who show up", cookbook author and artisan chef Kate Hill announces as we raise our glass of Baron D'Ardeuil Buzet (a Merlot blend) to toast the fruits of our afternoon labor. Yet, labor might be considered a misnomer, since by no means did I consider those precious hours tasting Floc de Gascogne, a local specialty made from Armagnac, while touching and tasting my way around ...

The Maitre d' of Cheese

The Maitre d' of Cheese Jul 8th, 2009 at 9:30AM: I must confess. I want Carolyn Stromberg's job. She spends all day surrounded by stinky cheese, nibbling away her work hours immersed in plethora of funkiness. There's no three-walled office cubicle for this former Cowgirl Creamery apprentice. Only a butcher's block and a stainless steel cheese slicer, along with one of the ultra-coolest gadgets I've seen in a long time-- a glass-enclosed cheese ...

Blogger Kendra Bailey Morris

Blogger Kendra Bailey Morris Jun 29th, 2009 at 12:30PM: Where was your photo taken? At the 17th Street Farmer's Market in my hometown of Richmond, Virginia. I'm a produce stand junkie. As soon as market season begins, you can find me sifting through piles of fresh veggies, meats and other locally made delicacies nearly every week. Where do you live now? Richmond, Virginia, where I spend the majority of my days writing, cooking, and planning where to go ...

Ardeonaig: South Africa in Scotland

Ardeonaig: South Africa in Scotland May 21st, 2009 at 4:00PM: Tucked away in Loch Tay is Scotland's best-kept secret. Ardeonaig brings a touch of South Africa to the simultaneously rough and enchanting countryside, fusing two cultures that one would not expect to see interwoven. The resort offers only a couple dozen rooms, most of which are freestanding thatch-roofed cottages scattered across the property. Each is quite large, accommodating two with plenty ...

Undiscovered New York: Cooking up a storm

Undiscovered New York: Cooking up a storm Apr 8th, 2009 at 10:00AM: It's no big secret that New York is absolutely spoiled for choice when it comes to food. If you need any proof, Undiscovered New York has already reviewed a whole slew of New York City's more interesting eating neighborhoods and cuisines. Yet one of the greatest benefits of all this great food is that you don't even have to go to one of New York's many restaurants to enjoy it. New York is also a ...

Vahrehvah.com: A superb resource for Indian cooking

Vahrehvah.com: A superb resource for Indian cooking Oct 16th, 2008 at 12:00PM: Finding this Indian cooking website has changed my world. I can cook basic Indian food, thanks to my mum, but when it comes to anything a little complicated, I get a lazy -- especially because (from experience) -- after a hours of work, the end result has not been worth the effort. I would also blame the disaster dish on me living in Spain: "All the spices are not available and what are available ...
