Got My Copy of Kimball's Milk St Kitchen Magazine Yeserday

Haven't gotten mine, but I read some reviews of it which were very similar to what you are saying.

I also read last night that America's Test Kitchen etc... is suing him for similarities in the magazine to Cook's, I think, and they allege he was working on this new project while still employed. I believe there are allegations of taking some recipes, also.

He was previously sued by someone else who owns a restaurant called Milk Street Kitchen, I think.

I too heard about the lawsuit(s)...apparently he was actively organizing the launch of Milk St while still at ATK and left a big ol footprint: emails, calls, etc.

You guys linked to the free issue, so I signed up for one. Haven't rec'd it yet, but I wasn't ever a big fan of Cook's Illustrated (esp his editor's columns, which grated like nails on a chalkboard).

My sense is the magazine format has little appeal these days, and The Food Lab/Kenji are doing a way better (and hipper) job of trying out techniques & sharing info on various ethnic foods.

Those articles don't do much for me. I was never going to subscribe anyway. I just wanted to see it.

I've finally gotten my cooking magazines under control over the past 10 years. I kept Cuisine at Home, Louisiana Cookin' and Louisiana Kitchens. That's it. Someone gave me Bon Appetit, but I'd stopped my own subscription some years ago. Thankfully, the person who gave it to me didn't renew this time as he'd been doing. I never read them. I don't have time and it changed over the years.

Well, he's a Yankee.

Just looked at their website. They have some easy dishes to cook. I cook this onepretty often, using my own recipe. My kids love it and it's quick and easy

I listened to a couple episodes of the Milk Street podcast. It's a very similar format to the ATK podcasts, but with Sara Moulton instead of Bridget Lancaster as the sidekick.

I didn't know Sara Moulton was involved. I watch her show on PBS sometimes.

I received an email this morning advising me that my charter issue was ready and would be arriving soon. It suggested that I keep it because it will a collector's item. Then, if offered a subscription at 57% off.
