2005 FBA: Call for nominations: Best Food Blog - Chef

12/05/05 @ 08:00:00 am, by Kate Hopkins Email 1305 views • Categories: Nominations

This category is fairly straightforward. It's for any food blog written by a chef. The chef should be able to prove that they worked, as a chef, or cook at some point during this year, and have posts on their site to prove it. The level of the chef is unimportant. It could be a Food Network star, or the person making hot dogs from a cart. Yes you can nominate yourself. Please put your nominations for this category in the comment section of this post only!

The winner of this category will receive a Digital Scale provided by the good folks at CalorieLab.

The Call for Nominations will close at Midnight on Friday, December 16 2005 Pacific Standard Time.

David Lebovitz- I don't really like chocolate, but enjoy the descriptions without gaining a gram.

Visually appealing site celebrating good honest food and living life to the fullest. New York City personal chef Jennifer Iserloh covers food, wine, travel and yoga. Lots of beautiful photography.

I especially love the food fiction on her blog at skinnychef.com/diary/

Although I am fond of both David's, Shuna's and Louisa's blogs, I want to add Haddock's blog, Knife's Edge, about a restaurant in Mendocino County that so truthful it makes me rethink whether or not I really want to open one myself.
