Feast Magazine By SBS Review And Giveaway. Win 2 Copies!
Watch out cooking world! There is a new kid on the food magazine block and "it" is gorgeous. Feast magazine launched by SBS last month in Australia is a reflection and extension of the television channel, exploring the rich cultural aspect of food from around the world.
Just as the name suggests, the magazine is a Feast for your eyes. The cover of Issue 1 is striking with Luke Nguyen’s casual noodle slurping photo in a red tee shouting out from the magazine rack at the newsagent "Pick Me! Pick Me!". Staying true to their motto of Experiencing Life Through Food, SBS offers a wealth of information, eye candy and recipes for a mere $6.50.
The magazine feels well balanced, with big pages and spectacular layouts. One of the key features, is the abundance of photos. The magazine has not only photos of the recipes it offers but almost twice as many photos of the cultural emotion behind the food and recipe. This makes the magazine a winner for me, a style that I have recently come to appreciate in a lot of these trendy new cultural food magazines including Jamie and Lucky Peach.
Issue 1 has 70 recipes, Luke Nguyen’s modern Vietnamese menu, a family photo story and recipes of an Argentinian barbecue, Daniella Germain’s fabulous book excerpt from her My Abuela’s Table, Potatoes and exploring the spud in four cultures, a feature on Matthew Evans and his gorgeous farm produce, picnics in Paris and Sikh culture on the coast, exploring food from the film Amelie, the Turkish Table and Malaysian & Ethiopian flavours.
I just bought Issue 2 from the newsagent last week and it is as fabulous as the first one if not more. I love Feast magazine so much that I have decided to give away 2 copies of Issue 1 to 2 lucky readers of Cook Republic. If you missed out on buying this magazine when it came out, then here is your chance to win that elusive launch issue.
To be in the running to win a copy, all you have to do is follow the instructions in the contest box below
Good Luck!

Another big-time lover of Feast here. I’m still waiting on my 2nd issue to arrive by post, and I’ve been trying to quell the urge to peek at the store.
You’ve described it really well – it IS well-balanced.
