I would surpass wine clubs completely unless you like a particular varietal or winery. Go to wine bars are specialty stores.

I heard Ed Levine on one of Martha Stewart's Sirius radio shows. I was impressed and intrigued and couldn't wait to get home and check out Serious Eats. I'm so glad I did. What a great community! Thanks for all the tips.

I've been trying to convince my niece to apply to Serious Eats to work as an intern. She's a darling 35 year old who lives in Manhattan and has worked in the restaurant world for many years. She's cute, intelligent, articulate, upbeat, loves to cook and knows her way around the computer. She needs a push......any suggestions??????

How did you first hear of serious eats?

I first heard of Serious Eats on eGullet in a little post on the Chicago board. It was by someone mentioning the Amateur Gourmet and the new site.

At first the name scared me. Serious Eats sounded too serious for me, but I was assured that seriously Serious Eats was not scarily Serious.

I'm very glad to have found it. I like the idea of being a Serious Eater.

Never could stand the idea of being a "eGulleteer". Talk about seriously scary. Heh.

A link from the Mario site. I bought the Mario/Copco risotto pan and the cast iron skillet and was looking for the link to the products page. Found this instead. This is my first night here...love it already!

I was freaking out at work because it was the day before I was leaving for vacation in France and I was so worried that I wouldn't be able to find a place to eat. My co-worker suggested posting to Talk on Serious Eats and I've been hooked ever since. And yes, France was wonderful and yummy!

How did you first hear of serious eats?

Ah yes, I remember it well. Watched an appalling episode of Semi-Homemade Cooking with Sandra Lee (I agree, they are all appalling) on the Food Network and decided to google her name so I could find a place to vent. I've been a huge fan ever since. Of your website, not HER! ;)

I was not even looking for a food blog, but came across it when I was searching for something recently (I don't remember what). It came up in the search results, and I've been hooked ever since! I only wish I had found it sooner...Thanks everyone for sharing your love of food with me!
