Representative Food Maps
Thanks to our friend Marina for alerting us to this supremely appropriate link. Henry Hargreaves and Caitlin Levin are photographers that work with the themes of food and travel in creative ways, such as creating world maps made out of a representative food from that country. The US is represented by corn, China by noodles, and France by bread and cheese. Do you agree with the representative foods chosen?

London-based photographer Richard Haughton specializes in capturing dishes by some of the world’s most creative chefs. Feature Shoot has an interview with Haughton, where he describes his techniques.

Coming soon….Next Sicily
We had the rare luck of snagging a ticket to the latest iteration of Grant Achatz’ eclectic Next restaurant, Sicily (for once, sitting at a computer and hitting “refresh” 400 times had a payoff). We visited Sicily on our honeymoon, so we are highly anticipating Achatz’ take on Sicilian home cooking. Our ticket is for this week, so you can expect a report back soon. In the meantime, check out our report of Next’s Thailand menu from last year. Update: Check out our full Next Sicily review here.
