My look behind, and in front of, the scenes at the magnificent La Grenouille is in the January issue of Bon Appetit.

In the current issue of GQ, you’ll find both the story of my adventures in Tokyo with David Chang, James Murphy and Aziz Ansari and my manifesto on the virtues of shopping while intoxicated. All in all, an excellent showing for Dipsomaniac Brett Martin, if that’s the My GQ profile of Ludo Lefebvre, chef, impresario and avatar of the dining world to come, is now online. My whale-watching adventure with Alexander Skarsgård is on the cover of June’s GQ, and online now. Sad to learn that Frank Buckles, America’s last WWI veteran, died—and, of course, an epoch with him. I’m honored that Mr. Buckles was gracious enough to welcome me to his West Virginia farm, a little over a year ago. This American Life is rerunning the episode containing “Crying on Airplanes” this weekend. Check your local listings, as they say. The spanking new brettmartin.org was designed by the good folk at pableaux.com. Please poke about. |
