Check These Out

More food blogs I’m reading this week, so much goodness out there:

Michael Ruhlman – subtitled “Translating the Chef’s Craft for the Everyday Kitchen.” A prolific and well-known writer, Michael’s blog is beautiful and practical, good combination (his wife Donna is a professional photographer – the pics are gorgeous).  Follow him on Facebook and Twitter.

Fork, Knife, and Spoon – written by Katie Ng Sommers – she’s local, yay! – who is among many things a professional photographer.  So yep, her blog is lovely to look at, as well as fresh and fun to read.  Follow her Foodography photo feature on the City Pages Hot Dish blog.  Also check out her food photos on her Les Petites Images photo blog, as well as on the Simple Good and Tasty blog (more about that, below).  She’s busy!  Follow her on Twitter.

Simple Good and Tasty – what a local resource, SGT “exists to promote local, sustainable, and organic foods and the people who produce them.”  A team effort, SGT is a comprehensive blog, event directory, event host, and a directory of vendors who serve or source local ingredients. They just celebrated their one-year birthday with a dinner at Grand Cafe – Happy Birthday!  Follow them on Facebook and Twitter.

Heavy Table – yet another local gem, Heavy Table is an online “Twin Cities-based magazine passionately telling the stories of food and drink – from roots to table – in the Upper Midwest.”  They cover it all, man – restaurants, home cooking/recipes, food and wine events, farm-to-table, local personalities, food news, an events calendar, on and on.  HT just celebrated their first year as well, so another Happy Birthday is in order.  Follow them on Facebook and Twitter.

That should do for this week – happy reading!
