  • Filled with great recipe ideas and food facts!

    Sep 12 '04
    Pros: Every recipe I've tried was excellent! Background of foods and articles very informative.
    Cons: Most recipes require hard to find ingredients. Not for the novice cook.

    Summary: As an author of a cookbook and webmaster of a site featuring old-fashioned, home style foods, trying new recipes is not just an adventure, but a job in my home. At first, Saveur seemed too fancy and elaborate to suit my usual cooking style, but I sure am ...

  • Subscriptions Nightmare

    Jul 13 '01
    Pros: Interesting articles on cuisine
    Cons: Expensive,Issues arrive late and Subscriptions Department unhelpful

    Summary: Since January 2000 I have been subscribing to Saveur. Saveur is more expensive than other comparable food magazines especially when you consider that a one year subscription is 8 issues and not 12. However, I like the format and the articles. The...

  • Not hoity-toity

    Feb 10 '01
    Pros: Delightful food and restaurant reviews, don't have to be a cook to love it
    Cons: A little expensive

    Summary: My mom was renewing her subscription to Saveur and discovered she received a free one with it. She signed us up! Not because she is a great chef does she receive this magazine. She is single, 72, very busy and if she cooks herself an egg, I am amazed....

  • Absolutly the best

    Dec 26 '00
    Pros: Everything
    Cons: Not the best source of wine information

    Summary: The best part of Saveur is the way they present cuisine as not simply food, but as an integral part of culture. They are also diligent at preserving and introducing the regional differences that make cultural exploration fascinating.

    Oct 04 '00
    Pros: It's an eye-opening learning tool.
