News to me: “Nikon, Olympus and Sony sell cameras that offer ‘cuisine’ or ‘food’ settings, which adjust to enhance colors and textures on close-ups.”

And there’s this: “Lefebvre happily cooked a private dinner for 18 food bloggers. His wife set up a portable light box in a corner of the dining room. Even before the bread plates hit the table, the crowd went nuts. As each new dish arrived, the bloggers rushed over to the light box to get the shot, then returned to their seats.”

I’m to make my first trip to Los Angeles in just a couple weeks. I will bring my elastic pants.

Manhattan may boast the highest concentration of high-end restaurants in the world, and Singapore hawker centers may pack more joy into each square inch, but Los Angeles is the best place in the world to eat at the moment, a frieze of fine dining overlaying a huge patchwork of immigrant communities big enough and self-sustaining enough to produce exactly the food that they want to eat.
