For years, Quince has been a website that I knew as “that place to get affordable cashmere sweaters.” But as its offerings have expanded further and further, from home goods and luggage to jewelry and perfume, it’s also become a source for diamonds, caviar, and even Dom Perignon. The site has been dabbling in gourmet […]

Restaurants in Tokyo are known for shokunin, the people who focus on a single skill to the point of obsession. These chefs dedicate their lives to the smallest details of a cuisine: the optimal temperature for the oil when frying tempura, the perfect texture for sushi rice, the ideal sear on grilled unagi. This long-term […]

From Barcelona’s towering churches and bustling avenues to the sun-drenched beaches and idyllic plazas, it’s obvious why this city captures visitors’ hearts. You can also eat incredibly well here, and often for not very much money — though Barcelona loves a tasting menu and the World’s 50 Best Restaurant list awarded Disfrutar the No. 1 […]

I live for a great steakhouse. Growing up, my late father, a lover of steak, took me to Cask ’n Cleaver in LA’s Inland Empire at the ripe age of 6, where I ordered filet with my best “Medium well, please.” Today, my favorite restaurant in Los Angeles is the classic Argentine steakhouse Carlitos Gardel, where I regularly partake […]

Steakhouses have main character energy. Coming across them in movies or television, it’s easy to picture yourself seated next to Don Draper and Roger Sterling entertaining clients over martinis, or imagine overhearing John Travolta’s character order his steak “bloody as hell” in Pulp Fiction’s “wax museum with a pulse,” as he describes the restaurant. Steakhouses […]

It’s easy to identify a great steakhouse. It’s that instantly comforting place serving big hunks of meat, shrimp cocktails, cold martinis, and so on. But the quest to find the “best steakhouse” requires a follow-up question: “The best for what?”  It turns out, when you ask an Eater editor about their favorite steakhouses, we often […]

By and large, most diners at Cote, the sleek and club-like New York City steakhouse, order the Butcher’s Feast. For $82 per person, diners get four cuts of beef, grilled tableside. But there is no creamed spinach here, nor loaded baked potatoes: Instead, there is banchan, like kimchi and pickled daikon; scallion salad, with gochugaru […]

If you’ve never tried Goop Kitchen, Gwyneth Paltrow’s takeout-only, nutritious food operation, you’re missing out. No matter what you think of the Hollywood star or her lifestyle and wellness brand, the consensus in LA restaurant circles is the company’s food is shockingly good. Chef Josiah Citrin, of two-Michelin-starred Mélisse, is a big fan, while Marissa […]

Dining out in Big Sur, California, requires intentionality. There’s nothing casual about visiting a restaurant off the cliff-hugging stretch of Highway 1, a place once described to me as “California’s Delphi.” The coastal community has long been a place of artistic and culinary pilgrimage, for folks in search of Big Sur Bakery scones (here’s hoping […]

A food-loving visitor will quickly learn that sardines, cod, and the iconic pastel de nata are great, but the Lisbon restaurant scene can offer much more. Portuguese cuisine draws on global flavors from the country’s centuries of trade, and Lisbon’s restaurateurs have access to top-quality fish and seafood, unique cheeses, lovely wines, and vegetables from […]

The largest city in North America, Mexico City is a unique, elastic, ever-changing patchwork of food traditions.
