The Spirits is awesome. Richard's writing is 👌

Quite the cornucopia of writers, if you don't mind the weak pun no one asked for. I'd add one other food writer to this list: Alison East, who writes "Editor & Chef" out of Austin, Texas. My wife and I both enjoy the newsletter for East's obsessive detail-by-detail cooking mind, but also for its insight into her young family and Christian faith.

Look for yourself, she has all the right ingredients for a cookbook and a mother's memoir: https://allisoneast.substack.com/

Rachel Riggs writes a great monthly recipe-driven newsletter at rachelriggs.substack.com. She’s a cookbook author, recipe developer, and former specialty food shop owner. It’s a great read for foodies as well as anyone who likes traditional food publications.

As a cookbook author I have really enjoyed this celebration of all things food and discovering new writers to follow. I am loving Virginia Solesmith's absolutely refreshing anti diet Burnt Toast newsletter.

I write a newsletter on food and culture called Consumed - come for the recipe recommendations and waxing poetic about food, stay for the humor :)

Please consider my piece on all the delicious Iranian foods that Anthony Bourdain missed eating when he went to Iran. Thanks.

Also, this is me so...I'm biased, but I just wrapped up the third season (60 episodes!) so there is a lot of content to consume if you're looking for something new. Interviews and coffee education. Season 4 will be expanding into the creative side of coffee.

I wanted to extend my heartfelt thanks for sharing the blog "What to Read: A buffet of food writing." It's fantastic to see such a diverse selection of food publications on Substack. Just as Substack offers a buffet of food writing, Ya Kun Kaya Toast's Singapore Menu (https://www.spmenus.com/ya-kun-kaya-toast-menu/) provides a delightful array of flavors and culinary experiences. Both exemplify the richness of food culture in their own unique ways, and I'm excited to explore more of both worlds. Thanks again for the wonderful recommendations!
