THG #11 – SUPER-SIZED COFFEE ISSUE Still Available!

The Hungover Gourmet: The Journal of Food, Drink, Travel and Fun is back with a super-sized 44-page issue. Our contributors celebrate – and trash, in some cases – the morning cup of joe that helps open our eyes and make us productive, or at least functioning members of society. Check out contributions from THG regulars like WP Tandy, Aj Michel, Davida Gypsy Brier, Tom Crites and John Taylor as well as Deborah Stultz, Dara Bujon, Catherine Harris and many more.

It's not all coffee enemas and Dunkin' Donuts as we send THG into the great zine library in the sky... Bryan Senn weighs in with thoughts from The Beer Snob while THG's editor-in-chief looks at Budweiser Chelada and explains the reasons behind killing off the print edition of the zine.

But wait – in the words of the late, great Billy Mays – there's more! THG's regular run goes out not with a whimper but a resounding BANG! as the one and only Louis Fowler takes the Big Lots Challenge and finds out if one man really can survive on nothing but Rap Snacks, Guava Nectar and Toddler Cuisine... it's a fitting coda to 12 years of the food newsletter that's guaranteed to give you heartburn! (DISCLAIMER: Heartburn not guaranteed.)

So what are you waiting for?! Order your copy now and be the first on your block to have THG #11: The Super Sized Final Issue!

One of the questions I'm most often asked is "How'd you get this way?" and there's really no easy answer. But, in Origins of The Hungover Gourmet I continue to trace my culinary history through my relationships with family, eating out at Howard Johnson's, television cooking shows and more.

You don't get to be known as "The Hungover Gourmet" without wrestling a few hangovers in your day. Through extensive on-the-job research I've tested (and in some cases retested) many of the popular "cures", old wives tales, and preventitive measures. Your mileage may vary. [ Read Cures ]

Drink recipes used to be so simple. A couple mixers, a handful of hard liquors, some garnishes and you were set. Today, the world of esoteric drink recipes seems to grow and grow with each passing day. While we rarely partake in mixed drinks here at THG HQ (see our Hangover Cures page for reasons why) we understand that a segment of our readership needs to know how to make a nice Pisco Punch.
