There’s nothing that makes me appreciate the streamlined ease of a one-pan meal more than watching a professional chef at work. The first time I stepped into a restaurant kitchen to observe the cooks, it was at a popular, cavernous restaurant called An American Place in New York City, where I had a college job…
We’ve shaken the sand from our shoes and tucked away our swimsuits until next summer, and the busyness of fall has begun: The calendar is filling up with to-dos and appointments, and if you can believe it, holiday plans. The days can sometimes feel like they’re slipping by, but stopping to make a simple meal…
This article is part of our latest special report on International Golf Homes. The gourmet food event that came to Punta Mita in Mexico in December had all the bells and whistles — Michelin-starred chefs, intimate wine tastings and mixologists shaking up creative new cocktails.

The butcher shop Schaller & Weber, a vestige of the German American culture that once flourished in the Yorkville section of the Upper East Side, plans to add a little Austrian flavor to its stretch of Second Avenue.

And yet again, Elaine just had to go back to the kitchen. And again, her father had something to do with it, only this time in a supportive way. Her wish to go to work at Ottolenghi in London seems to have swayed it, and for that I am utterly grateful. The Ottolenghi books, you…
Hi there! I’m Tanya, an editor on this newsletter and your substitute teacher this week in Ms. Richardson’s absence. Please, get off the desks. There was a lot to look forward to when I moved to New York City from Washington, D.C., nearly five months ago: a new apartment to decorate, new friends to make,…
The star ratings and other distinctions in the Michelin Guide New York City for 2022 will be announced on Oct. 6 during a ceremony at Peak, the restaurant on the 101st floor of 30 Hudson Yards. But before that shoe drops, the company is providing an advance list of new restaurants it plans to add…

So much so that Zacchaeus Golden made the news when he opened one called Southern Soigné in December. But it turns out he wasn’t such an outlier.
