The hotel and caterer magazine and restaurant magazine are two that carry a lot of information, a lot of rubbish too, but still keep you up to date. To a lesser extent there is hotel and restaurant magazine.

i religously read restaurant magazine - just received latest copy today.

observer food monthly is generally very good.

do you mean for news/gossip about chefs and restaurants or for receipes?

Caterer is unremittingly dry and has far too many photos of new industrial kitchen paraphenalia to be of interest: it has only once made me even smile with an uncharacteristically amusing April Fool's interview for Last Supper with a chef hoping to emulate Cage's 4'33'' on a plate.

Restaurant is more fun though less up to date for news. The features are much better.

OFM is flabby, full of mistakes and Nigel Slater: an awful combination. Occasionally it's interesting, mostly it's vacuous.

The FT Weekend is the best supplement in any of the broadsheets: in-depth, concise, and broadly independent of PR.

Tarka...not recipes...news/gossip about chefs and restaurants.

FT Weekend sounds interesting...what about websites, other than this one of course!

A couple of less gossipy publications which are interesting are
