New Yorkers, get your appetites
ready. This September the publishers of the mouth-watering
Edible East End and Edible Brooklyn
are serving up Edible Manhattan, too.
More investigative
journalism than food porn, more historical profile
than restaurant gossip, Edible pulls back
the curtain on our food to reveal every spellbinding,
unctuous tale in town. It's a grassroots revolution
that sates a hunger left by other food mags.
Now
Edible will sink its teeth into that long,
skinny island that has set food trends for so long.
It's a big story to tell. For centuries, this city
has been tastemaker for America-and the world. Even
today, Madison Avenue food jingles play across the
country, Big Apple souschefs reinvent cuisine, and
gastro-entrepreneurs tickle our tastebuds.
And,
from the politics of school lunch to the farmers
market revolution to the quality of New York's water,
Manhattan is the frontline of our food future-sometimes
controversial, always delicious.
From
Harlem's fried chicken on waffles to bahn mi downtown,
from LaGuardia's love of hot dogs to Bloomberg's
stance on trans fats, from the meatpacking district's
days of just that to its nights of stilletos, and
from the diners in "Midnight Cowboy" to
the bodegas up and down Broadway-we'll taste Manhattan.
