The premise of RSVP, Bon Appétit’s longest-running column, is simple: Readers write in to request recipes for their favorite restaurant dishes, and the magazine’s test kitchen chefs whip up a version that can be easily tackled at home—no commercial equipment or impossible-to-find ingredients required. Nowadays, the formerly handwritten letters have mostly been replaced by email (and tweets and Facebook posts), but RSVP is still as popular as ever, receiving upwards of 60 requests a week. “Even though it started in 1972, it’s even more relevant now because people have become increasingly obsessed with restaurants and creating restaurant-quality food at home,” said Julia Kramer, the section’s editor. “What’s neat about RSVP is that a lot of restaurants are represented in the magazine that normally wouldn’t be,” added Bon Appétit editor in chief Adam Rapoport. “In the world of food media, everyone wants to know what the cool, new restaurant is, but that means some great neighborhood spots in smaller towns don’t get as much coverage. RSVP gives them their 15 minutes of fame.” For Adweek’s annual Food Issue, we teamed up with Bon Appétit to create our own take on RSVP—with a media twist, of course. Below, you’ll find industry insiders’ favorite lunch eats from Los Angeles to New York, and get the full recipes on Adweek.com, courtesy of Bon Appétit chef de cuisine Mary Nolan.

Sheryl Sandberg helped Facebook post some insane numbers: after their IPO debacle of May 2012, shares have gone up 140% in the past year, to about $50.

When Conde Nast closed Gourmet in 2009, the company staked much of its epicurean business on Bon Appetit, a staid magazine with a big circulation but little traction outside the food category.
