CBD Ezine: Quay, Next, Indian Recipes and MORE!

Wednesday, April 27, 2011

Dear Food Lovers,
____
How has your week been so far?  We hope you’re having an outstanding week.  Anyway, you’re probably familiar with the Modernist Cuisine.  It’s the book that everybody in the culinary world is talking about.  We have featured it several times.  It’s hard to miss it.  Not just because it is a really heavy and thick book but also because it features amazing food photography.  We have included an article on the photographer in this week’s issue.
____
We have come across several articles on the rising world food prices.  Amazingly enough, it seems like it has not made a huge impact on food prices in certain Asian countries.  Why is this so?   A link to an article below offers an answer.
____
Grant Achatz is another favorite topic in this week’s blog posts and news features.  We have included an interesting review of his restaurant.  Is it a good review or a scathing one? You decide for yourself.  We have also included a controversial article about the toddler who was served alcohol in a restaurant.
____
For our featured recipes, we thought we’d gather some of the most delicious Indian recipes we found online.  Let’s cook some sumptuous Indian treat this week.We have really great selections this week. Check them all out below.

CBD Ezine: S. Pellegrino World’s Best Restaurants 2011 and Non-Meat Recipes for Easter

Wednesday, April 20, 2011

Dear Food Lovers,

The S. Pellegrino has released its list – and once again Noma took the top spot. Meanwhile, El Bulli is no longer included in the list because it’s going to close shop later this year.  Fat Duck went down a couple of notch, but most of the restaurants in the top 25 are the same restaurants from last year’s list.  There are some new entries in the top 50 list and a few reentries.  Varvary of Russia made it to the 48th spot this year. We have a few links on this.  We also have several non-meat recipes below.  We have included a couple of Easter recipes.   Check them out below.
