We just came across this gem of a magazine and are adding it to our wish list. Far from your standard recipe magazine, The Gourmand offers a fresh perspective on food and dining, looking at the communicative power of food and its inherent relationship with art. A perfect Christmas gift for the food loving artist, the art loving cook or anyone who (as the title suggests) takes pleasure and interest in food of all kinds.
Based in London, The Gourmand is inspired not only by a true passion for food and dining but by the exciting influx of new restaurants, bars, cafe’s, stalls and ingredients that are increasingly available to us. The Gourmand was born as a means to share this exciting cultural shift and to celebrate food as a catalyst for creativity.
The Gourmand is the culmination of a journey which began with a dinner at our home with friends, many of whom have contributed to this first issue.As we dined we discussed our initial ideas for editorial, illustration and photography projects and it has been a pleasure to watch these ideas form in to the journal.
The magazine is published twice a year and is available both as an online or a printed subscription. Check out their site and get a (gift-) subscription here.
