It’s time for one of my favorite issues of The Boulevard, the Food Issue! Where do I start? With the cover, I suppose. The Boulevard is thrilled to feature television host, author, restaurateur and Iron Chef Bobby Flay, whose zest for life easily equals his zest for cooking. I’ve had the opportunity now to visit a few of Bobby’s restaurants and each one is a new experience. From the elegant Bar Americain in New York City to the fun Bobby’s Burger Palace in Lake Grove, L.I., you simply can’t go wrong. His new book, Bobby Flay’s Throwdown, was recently released and it makes a great holiday gift.
Throughout the summer and fall The Boulevard was busy trying to pull together the perfect complement of celebrity features, just as any chef would do with the ingredients of a meal. We started with Aarti Sequeira, who at the time we booked her was still a contestant on The Next Food Network Star. Then we added Marc Forgione, who was still a contestant on The Next Iron Chef. I’m happy to say that both Aarti and Marc came out as winners, thanks to Mr. Bobby Flay. Additionally, we ran into Andrew Zimmern between his exotic travels and we found out that the legendary Carlos Santana has moved from music into food. Lee Brian Schrager, who founded both the New York and Miami/South Beach Wine & Food festivals, sat with us to discuss his new cookbook, The Food Network South Beach Wine & Food Festival Cookbook. Tina Guiomar flew out to Chicago to meet with the innovative Future Food Guys.
As always, some wonderful celebrity chefs and friends of The Boulevard have graciously sent delicious recipes for us to share with our readers. For that, a special thanks goes out to Guy Fieri, Ingrid Hoffman, Jean Georges, Serena Palumbo and Devin Alexander.
This issue also offers a gift guide for the holiday season and its usual array of travel, health, lifestyle and fashion highlights.
To all, I wish you and your families a very happy and safe holiday season!

October - November 2009

For our October/November issue of The Boulevard, I’m very excited to feature a legendary comedian on our cover. Bill Maher keeps his audiences laughing for hours on end. While often criticized for his vocal political views, Bill has the heart of a true comic genius.
