The San Francisco Chronicle's Sunday Magazine cover piece on women chefs is available online, as is a video round-table discussion with chefs Traci Des Jardins (Jardiniere), Nancy Oakes (Boulevard), and Loretta Keller (CoCo 500), as well as authors Ann Cooper ("A Women's Place is in the Kitchen") and Joyce Goldstein ("The Mediterranean Kitchen").

If you're a fan of ruminating over the differences between men and women in the kitchen, you'll definitely find something here to chew on.
