The FiFi Report 054

http://www.culturekiosque.com
It’s true, you can get all the latest tidbits of hot, culture news with The FiFi Report (in Globetrotter ) but if you’re traveling and want more indepth information on where to find the best jazz, opera, theatre and exhibitions in the world, then I insist you log on here. It’s “The European Guide to Arts, Culture and Entertainment Worldwide”. The design is a bit confusing, but it is full of information for culture vultures. Click on any section like Opera, Jazz, Klassic, or Art and Archeology, and there’s even a Cyberchef section (that I will scour for any hot recipes) with interviews with celebrity chefs such as Michel Roux. Hours of reading.

This is the fashion photographer, Nick Knight’s website and if you are a long time FiFi reader, or have scrolled through the archives, you knew about this last year. It’s worth having another look because he’s showing the inside scoop on his shoot in this month’s W magazine called ‘Banquet’. “ In May 2004, a complement of mystery guests were invited to participate in this twenty-two-course meal, prepared by the gastronomic alchemist Heston Blumenthal. Not only can you listen in on the diner’s conversations, you can also see what’s on their plates as they consume the challenging courses. This broadcast will finally reveal the secret identities of all celebrity diners present in a sequence of unseen images from the shoot” Delcious.
