À LA MINUTE: Chef and Cookbook Author Carla Lalli
Welcome to Gourmet magazine, an independently owned digital food magazine that’s not affiliated with the Gourmet magazines of yore. Our Tuesday editions are where we feature great writing about food. Thursday is for recipes.
À La Minute
Carla Lalli would fuck a fish crudo. That’s what she told Gourmet in an exclusive, no-holds-barred interview covering everything from THC in 1WTC to drinking a—gasp!—Celsius. Welcome to the first installment of our interview series À La Minute, where we set a timer for five minutes and pepper someone with as many (mostly) food-related questions as possible. The former Bon Appétit editor at large certainly has food on the mind. She’s a few months out from releasing her third cookbook Food Is A Feeling, and she continues to publish her newsletter Food Processing.
