Though we all already know about the sudden ending of the notorious Gourmet magazine, we are all wondering what is next for all of the fabulous writers, editors and tasters at the magazine, especially known other than Ruth Reichl.

Well, do not fret guys because Reichl will not only be continuing the book tour for the new cookbook “Gourmet Today,” before she commences on writing her own, and on Oct. 17, the public television show “Gourmet’s Adventures With Ruth” debuts.

Reichl states “It was exciting to be able to change the magazine into something that has a conscience and understood that eating is an ethical act,” she said. “When I got here the staff had a real appetite for doing that.”

Although sad and exhausted Reichl also states that “This magazine invented the epicurean category in the U.S.,” she said. “You read the magazine and you get a picture of America through its food. For almost 70 years it chronicled what America was like. My little piece of it was just at the end.”
