What is Gourmet magazine's font for their logo?

I'm going to create the "G" from scratch and use a font called Snell Roundhand for "ourmet", customizing it to match the logo. Thanks for all of the feedback, guys.

Can I has cheezburger?
Artery blocker of my dreams,
Ruminating in my tummy.
Never raw, always sunning.
Illicitly grilling my
Vixen of meat.
Oh me, oh my. Onion
Rings or french fries on the sly,
Excellent cheezburger I can has inside.

Dude, you crack me up! I've gone twice in the freezing cold and I'll tell you two things: 1. The burger DOES taste better in the chill and 2. I won't be ordering an Orange Cremesicle until they install those heaters. Heat is key when it comes to consuming custard.

Blue velvet cupcakes, my twisted take on the classic Red Velvet... the cake is royal blue and the cream cheese icing is neon blue. Even after one bite, your mouth looks like it was mauled by a Smurf.

My family lives on Oahu, HI so when I got visit, I go to Costco and Times supermarket if I have to but my heart belongs to Diamond Head Market. They make the best chicken curried salad EVER and when you hit the cash wrap, there are Spam Musubis right there for the taking. Pretty awesome!

Astoria, Queens

Places I shop
1. Key Food or Associated markets are my main source food shopping sources.
2. Fresh Direct can get me anything I want (when they remember my order) from organic meat to TP. I use this during those weeks when I get out of work too late when the stores are closed and my fridge is bare.
3. The Farmers market in Union Square... it's a thing of beauty. Any farmers market makes me fall in love with food all over again. My favorite find was at the San Rafael Civic Center Farmers Markets in California where I became addicted to Jalapeno jelly spreads... put them on a cracker with cream cheese and you're in heaven!
4. Whole Foods in the cit-tay but the line usually scares me off.

@2qrs - good point. You could just outline the G only?

What is Gourmet magazine's font for their logo?

There are two fonts that are really close...and unlike snell...the R & M are closer to the customized Gourmet Logo....

Bickham is a standard Adobe font that comes with creative suite, or the stand alone illustrator & photoshop products....it is everywhere...

You might also try York which is very similar.

Regardless...you'll have to recreate the G if you want it to match perfectly....and even the other letters will need to be tweaked to get the widths & kerning to line up...but...depending upon what you are doing, it may be close enough.

What software are you using & what's the application?

..pretty good source.
"pload a scanned image of the font and instantly find the closest matches in our database. If WhatTheFont can’t figure it out, you can submit your image to the WhatTheFont Forum where cloak-draped font enthusiasts around the world will help you out!"

Is this the one? I would check Veer...looks familiar to me.

I loved the book! I laughed so hard, I cried! The bone marrow part, OMG! I hope the movie does it justice. Maryl as Julia, brilliant! Plus, Nora Ephron is directing it, love her stuff. I'm really looking forward to it, probablly will buy the blue ray too!

I am not a reader, but I picked up the book and couldn't put it down. I'm really looking forward to seeing the film. Only one thing though; Amy Adams = Julie Powell? I don't think so.

gracemetcalf and saltcrystal, I couldn't stand the book either. This movie looks good, but in the book, Julie seemed to whine all the time. I can't stand whiners.

saltcrystal, where did you read that Julia Child didn't like Julie Powell? I would love to about it!

Zack, no one will ever look at you the same way again. Of course, most of us out in the interweb don't actually see you, so it probably won't be too inconvenient.

Aaaaah!! Meryl Streep as Julia Child is STUPENDOUS!! How did they get her to look tall? Did they just hire a bunch of short French people to walk around her?
