Live Chat Today on Cooking and Eating Gluten-Free

May 23, 2013 by Leave a Comment

The LA Times is hosting a chat on gluten free diets today at 2 p.m. Eastern Time with Kristine Kidd. Health experts estimate that as many as a third of us have some level of intolerance to gluten — a protein found mostly in wheat. And gluten shows up in more than bread and cake — foods you might not guess, such as sauces and herb mixes.

Kristine Kidd has been gluten free for years and has written a cookbook called “Weeknight Gluten-Free.” She spent two decades as an editor at Bon Appetit magazine.

May 3, 2013 by Leave a Comment

At next weekend’s Frieze Art Fair there will be plenty of food on hand from local vendors. In addition, there is a major subject-specific food tribute.

At Frieze New York 2012, with a homage to Fashion Moda and a presentation of John Ahearn’s work, Frieze Projects started a series of tributes to historical artist-run spaces and initiatives that have defined and transformed the cultural and artistic life of New York City. FOOD 1971/2013 is the second project in this series.

At Frieze New York 2013, Frieze Projects will organize a special tribute to FOOD, the legendary restaurant opened in October 1971 by Gordon Matta- Clark and Carol Goodden in collaboration with other artists. This tribute will take the form of a temporary restaurant where the history and legacy of FOOD will be celebrated. A meeting space, a restaurant and a total work of art, FOOD was driven by the energy of the people that ran it and those who gathered there. In the same spirit, FOOD 1971/2013 will be a dynamic platform where each day a different artist will be invited to cook in a convivial environment. Both a restaurant and performance stage FOOD 1971/2013 will be a space where cooking and art are discussed, inspired and produced.

Tickets are available here.
