Websites for French food publications

[John Talbott]

Recently, Greg Wilson put a list up of food magazines from all over on the Food Media and News Forum. It occurred to me we all might want to do the same here on the French Forum for what I’m sure would be an even bigger list of French publications. I’ll start with the ones Greg put up, then add a few and then encourage you all to add others. Thanks.

PS I realize some are largely devoted to getting you to subscribe but let’s list them all anyway.

Greg's ones:

There are three more scholarly journals (not all of whose content is about French food) mentioned in this summer's issue of Gastronomica :

Food and History

Food and Foodways

Food, Culture and Society

John et al, I have been unable to buy Gault Millau magazine either at my excellent international magazine shop in San Francisco nor at any of the good shops I tried in Paris, as well as every Ralay I passed in major gares. Are they having trouble again? Word?

Again, yet, still?

Yup they sure are. The rag has gone yet another transformation and hasn't yet found its footing. The reviews are so out of date, the content so glossy (think travel ads and expensive wines) and its appearance so unpredictable that I've taken to respectfully asking my vendor to let me leaf through it, jotting down the scores on the restos and putting it back on the rack.

Folks who used to work there can provide the gory details but it is a sad end to what was so exciting to us all when it broke onto the scene.
