Gourmet Magazine to close

Gourmet magazine, that lovely publication full of glossy recipes you can never do so well yourself, will be closing soon, according to the New York Times and Wall Street Journal. Sources cite low ad revenue for the Conde Nast publication.

I'm sad to see Gourmet go; I once had the pleasure of working with a few of their editors while at Commander's Palace and recall a devotion to food that at the time I could not match.

Sad day.

Beer and Cheese Pairing

Gotta love the Wall Street Journal and it's creative titles.
I haven't had a chance to indulge in this particular pairing, but it may be good material for tonight's dinner plate...
