Hugh Garvey, features editor at Bon Appetit magazine here and a food blogger, has a new cookbook out called "Gastrokid Cookbook: Feeding a Foodie Family in a Fast-Food World." Self-explanatory title. Hugh created the Liquid City column in the Village Voice in the mid '90s and has written for Fortune, Details, GQ, Travel and Leisure and T: the New York Times Style Magazine. We were colleagues when I was the Los Angeles bureau chief for The Industry Standard. Via The Foodinista.
