Gourmet Magazine

Gourmet is a USA magazine covering Food & Beverage.

Gourmet magazine ceased publication after the release of the November 2009 issue. Gourmet was first published in January 1941, offering articles on food, recipes from both the magazine staff and readers, and cooking advice. More recently, Gourmet covered fine food, restaurants, good living, travel, entertaining, and culture, seeking to create "an unrivaled environment of modern luxury and classic style." Each month, two cooks in the Gourmet Test Kitchen were given an ingredient and asked to create two dishes each — one savory and one sweet. Reader votes determined who won. Conde Nast Publications bought Gourmet magazine in 1983.

In the fall of 2010, Condé Nast announced that it will revive Gourmet as Gourmet Live, an app/magazine designed to be consumed on devices like Apple’s (AAPL) iPad.

This magazine is owned by Conde Nast Publications.
