Letting Cab Drivers Be Food Critics
Photograph from Baptiste Pons on Flickr Layne Mosler gets her rides and her food tips from the same place: her cabbies. The Californian, who moved to Buenos Aires in 2005, is a writer for South American Explorer and Time Out Buenos Aires and started a blog called Taxi Gourmet in 2007. For each post, she randomly hops into a cab and lets the driver point her to locro (stew with hominy, peppers and meat parts), lechón (suckling pig), or chinchulín (cow intestines). "I initially thought maybe I want to pick older guys or guys with a potbelly or guys who look like they know how to eat, but you never really know," she told the Washington Post. A cab driver...'Times Online' Lists 50 Best Food Blogs

Eater Chicago isn't happening. Which makes us all a little sad—in some ways. All the news of openings and closings and comings and goings would have been well-handled by the Eater formula. An Eater site would have been a sort of recognition that Chicago had truly made it as a food city. Alas, it wasn't meant to be. So, aside from our own regular coverage of Chicago eats, we wanted to list some of our favorite Chicago food blogs. Hungry Magazine: Serious Eats contributor Mike Nagrant helms this bona fide food magazine. He and his contributors update daily with a new review, think piece, recipe, or food memoir, always accompanied by great photographyMenuPages Chicago: Edited by Helen Rosner, this aggressively...Probably the Best Time to Let an Economist Rate Food

Cheap Healthy Good is a blog about "making delicious eats at a reasonable cost," a topic I think we're all interested in these days, especially the "reasonable costs" part. A good place to dive into the wealth of tips and recipes on Cheap Healthy Good is Kris's recent post, The Hour: How 60 Minutes a Week Can Save Hundreds of Dollars on Food. What it boils down to is: 1. Scanning online circulars 2. Clipping and organizing coupons 3. Creating a menu for the week based on 1 and 2 4.

The folks behind New York's restaurant-obsessed blog Eater have planted a flag in San Francisco with Eater SF: It's taken us a while a to get here, in part because, we'll be frank, San Francisco is a serious place when it comes to restaurants. We don't half-ass the eating here, so we didn't want to half-ass Eater either. (So, for those that have been waiting, we thank you for your patience.) The site's editor is Paolo Lucchesi, who, it seems until recently, served as editor of Menupages SF. Eater SF follows the debut earlier this year of Eater LA. Good luck, break a leg, and bon appétit!...Hot Topics: Technique of the Week | The Food Lab
