Narcissism, Slow Food, etc...
Been very busy writing the last couple of weeks, for which I am very grateful. I just finished the following stories:

-An article about pathological narcissism. I interviewed Professor Frederick Rhodewalt, who is considered to be one of the country's leading experts on the subject. The story will be out in the Nov/Dec. issue of Arts & Living California magazine.

-Ventura Weekend Getaway/Slow Food Scene: I spent the weekend in Ventura, CA a couple of months ago and discovered that this sleepy little beach town has quite a budding restaurant scene. Many of the chefs here embrace the Slow Food movement, which focuses on using local ingredients and products. Out in the Jan/Feb. issue of Intermezzo magazine.

-Chef Profile on Carolynn Spence: This tatted-up talent heads the kitchens of the famed Chateau Marmont hotel restaurant and the Bar Marmont gastropub next door, and her food is mind-blowing. I got to sample the best double-cut pork chop I have ever had, and that's no exaggeration (it comes with bacon-wrapped apples!?!). Coming soon in Intermezzo magazine.

-My Japan and Chef Josef Centeno stories will be out in the next issue of Intermezzo, which should be on stands in a few weeks (I was wrong about the dates last time I posted - sorry!).

-I'm off to New Zealand for two weeks to explore the food and food culture of this beautiful country. More when I return!

Brand New Website!
Today I just launched my new clareiswriting.com website. Thanks so much to designer Gerald Acosta for doing such an amazing job!!

Here's the latest on what I've been doing:

-Keep your eye out for Intermezzo Issue #20, which hits newsstands in a few weeks. You will find both my Osaka piece (with a focus on takoyaki and okonomiyaki) and profile on chef Josef Centeno in the issue.

-I will be traveling to New Zealand sometime this fall for a story.

-I'm currently working on a weekend getaway piece about Ventura, which will focus local chefs who embrace the Slow Food philosophy.

Stay tuned for more updates!
