As of November 1, 2005, Savoring Chicago has ceased publication and is no longer accepting subscriptions.

For the past two and a half years, I have thoroughly enjoyed exploring Chicago for great food finds, meeting the hard-working people behind the businesses, and most of all, sharing my discoveries with readers through Savoring Chicago. Unfortunately, I lacked the resources to grow the publication as I would have liked. I am, however, planning to continue sharing my finds through this website, pursue other avenues of publication, and perhaps resurrect Savoring Chicago in the future.

I have greatly appreciated all the positive input from readers and from volunteers and friends who provided generous help and support, including Phyllis Kennedy, my copyeditor; Bob Gailen, my graphic designer from Paragon Design International; Peggy Folz who became my portrait photographer and television assistant; and good friend Tim Kilbourne who helped in countless ways behind the scenes.

To contact me, please see the Contact Us page for details.

Sincerely,

Lydia Marchuk
Editor and Publisher
