Cuisine Populaire - A Virtual Vacation For Foodies

CHICAGO - Thousands of frequent flier miles, countless gourmet meals and scores of wine tastings later, publisher Robert J. Borchardt, Jr. and the team behind Cuisine Populaire (www.cuisinepopulaire.com) announced early this year the launch of the free, monthly E-mail newsletter and website that presents a cultural, 'in-the-know' look at unique travel destinations through the lens of food and wine.

Flavorful inspiration written by expert journalists who have traveled to the vibrant destinations they are describing is delivered to subscribers desktops each month in a clean, uncluttered format. Cuisine Populaire transports food and wine connoisseurs to the picturesque regions around the globe, painting a broad portrait of the area's dedication to the art of fine living.

Each month a combination of 10 mini-chapters comprised of categories including Great Tables; Drinks; Chefs; Bookshelf; Dish; Travel; Organics; Shops; CP Etcetera; and Tasting Notes provides readers a soulful glimpse into one specific corner of the world.

Furthermore, Cuisine Populaire's message boards, podcasting and exclusive streaming video brings the sights and sounds of each destination to life. For example, the Alsace newsletter incorporated a video cooking demonstration with renowned Alsatian-born chef Jean Joho of Chicago's four-star Everest.

Future issues promise to be just as captivating with regional features and rare, behind-the-scenes video with prominent stateside and international chefs.

Whether planning a culinary vacation or a brief mental immersion in the world's most revered gastronomic retreats, Cuisine Populaire is an ideal resource. Food + Wine + Culture in just one click.
