Chef's Studio
The Chef's Studio explores the work of the many innovative chef's around the United States and Europe. Since 1995 it has been hosted by Alan Simpson and Linda Schnabl. Eating in the New Year
The team at Chef's Studio led by Linda Schnabl once again rang in the New Year with the traditional New Years Eve Party, and New Years Day Starving Media Party where our colleagues from Washington, DC left the world of politics and enjoyed gastronomic delights from around the world. The New Years Day "Starving Media Party" has been an annual tradition ever since Chef's Studio and later Chef's TV moved to Washington, DC in 2000. Every year a hungry group of international journalists come together and enjoy the Tastes of the World, a review of the years news hot spots in food and beverage. The event became known as the "Starving Media Party" because of the amount of international and domestic cuisine that was consumed and the only time many of the TV journalists were quiet, too busy enjoying their food and beverages to comment beyond grunts of approvals. |
Fisherman's Studio
The Fisherman's Studio is a recent creation, born out of following Fishing Politics in Washington, DC and around the States. There is a peace and beauty about fishing that just can't be described. The cares of the world just seem to drift away in the gentle noise of the waves, or the stream. Studies have been undertaken that proves fishing leads to a better, and more relaxed lifestyle. Alan Simpson has been a fisherman for over fifty years, from the lakes of England, Texas and Florida, to the wide oceans off Australia and the United States. This love of the Great Outdoors has prompted him to leave aside the Corridors of Power in Washington, DC and focus on the Chesapeake Bay, as well as the occasional trips North and to Florida. In the months ahead he will be writing and filming the pleasures of fishing, the tranquility of the surroundings, and the enjoyment of the Great Outdoors. |
Those Hidden Getaways
The days of mass tourism may be at an end thanks to the sky high price of fuel, and the growing restrictions to the travel experience thanks to geopolitical events. Many are starting to realize again that there is beauty everywhere, and maybe a quiet weekend looking at the sea, lakes or the mountains can achieve more than being thrown around on Roller Coasters, jostled by swarming crowds and putting up with the stress and inconvenience of the major tourism destinations. LTN is looking at the trends for leisure, which have taken a marked shift in direction. More shortly ....... |
