Alice
Waters: A Retrospective
A few weeks ago,
the James Beard Foundation bestowed
on Alice Waters its Lifetime Achievement
Award. The founder of Chez Panisse,
prolific author and strong advocate
for farmers markets and sustainable
agriculture has touched people's
lives in ways that they may never
know. She has changed the way
we think about food, and how we
eat. Here's a retrospective
of her work.

Not
Your Run of the Mill Inn
Napa
River Inn
This Wine Country inn is the centerpiece
of the largest historic redevelopment
project in the history of Napa.
Housed in the Hatt Building (its
core is a silo), the interior
surprises with opulent elegance.
The structure itself is worth
a trip!

Forks
on the Road

do we eat? Bryan Miller has assembled
a strategy: Never eat at a place
called Mom's. Beware of large
pepper mills. And stay clear of
Chinese food in Oklahoma...
