Looking for a resource for food related magazines

Post #1 - July 22nd, 2007, 9:33 amDoes anyone know of a bookstore in the Chicago area that has a really good selection of food related magazines? I'm thinking of something else besides Food & Wine, Gourmet etc.
Thanks!

Post #2 - July 23rd, 2007, 9:10 pmThe Chicago/Main newsstand in Evanston has a wide selection of all sorts of magazines, including a pretty deep collection of food and drink magazines.
It's just about right next to the Main street purple line stop. It's also fairly close to Cross-Rhodes, if you feel like a good burger.

Post #4 - July 24th, 2007, 6:46 amMost Borders and Barnes and Nobles have large selections of food magazines. I'd start with the larger ones downtown.

Thanks for all the suggestions! I really enjoy the Delcious magazine from Australia and am looking for similar magazines. Thanks again to everyone who responded!

Post #7 - July 30th, 2007, 11:16 amConnected with the Chicago-Main stand is City Newsstand at Irving Park & Cicero, which is bigger and I think has the best selection in the entire area for magazines of all kinds. Never mind the weird guys standing in the corner with their hands in their pockets though.

Post #8 - July 30th, 2007, 12:25 pmI believe the Chicago Public Library (Main library -- Harold Washington Branch) has at least several major cooking magazines (Cook's Illustrated, Gourmet, Saveur, Fine Cooking) and possibly quite a few more. I know some of them circulate, but not sure if there's a cut-off (such as "most recent X issues do not circulate and are available in the magazine/reference room only"). Some of the collections go way back -- e.g., I think the library has holdings on Gourmet going back to the 50s.
