Eating a meal is one of our most fundamental human experiences. Sitting around a table, the dishes and utensils set, sharing the extended hours of a slow cooked meal with good company is a ritual to new beginnings, celebration and mirth. In this issue of FINE magazine, we explore food and drink from various angles of artistic and romantic possibility.
Go inside the kitchen with celebrated chef, Grant Achatz for an artistic look at modernist cuisine. Take a stroll down Main Street in Texas wine country and uncover adventure in Fredericksburg. San Diego has plenty of sweet ways to end a meal and several entertaining ideas for a thoughtful Valentine’s Day. All this and more is sure to get readers in the mood—to break some bread and pour the wine.
We appreciate the local talent and global influence that inspires us to savor the moment and enjoy each bite.
Bon appétit,
John Winfield
