Lucky Peach Issue 13 Paperback – November 18, 2014

This time LP has come out with a magical holiday issue (holidays, not just Christmas) where they go into depth about the holidays (Mostly Christmas, but not only Christmas) and the food that goes into it. I loved every article in it and devoured this one. I've been buying past issues of LP and trying to get every issue, and so far this one is one of my favorites. The only article I didn't enjoy was the one about the Islamic version of Christmas or Chanukah, and how one person celebrated it in his long lost home town of Tehran, Afghanistan. I didn't like it because it was so depressing and boring, while the rest of the magazine is pretty upbeat and full of interesting stories and information. I do think it is worth noting that Lucky Peach is always printed on great quality paper and the journalism is always accompanied by great photography/artwork and the writers themselves are funny and knowledgeable.

I really like this magazine/book. The stories are interesting. It's not your typical food magazine it gives the reader much more than recipes , it gives you insight into the whole food experience. Also, I'm a sucker for any Christmas issue of any magazine. I have saved back issues of every Christmas mag I've bought since 1980, maybe longer. This will be a great addition to my collection.

Good mag. Too bad that it's fading (see my issue 14 review). Limited run here is my prediction. I enjoy Chang's insight and recipes, though.

my brother is a chef and is an avid reader, therefore I vote a 5 star!

Each issue is a work of art and wit. Love this!

Awesome, beautiful, excellent publication!

Great eclectic cooking magazine.

Love their style

My son the chef really likes these.
