For Issue 05, our theme is place.

It can include all directions (cardinal or not) in which this idea takes you. That could mean detailing the ins and outs of an urban farm bringing its city the freshest possible goods, but it might shape up as the international journey of an ingredient displaced by war.

It could also mean mapping the cuisine of a place that no longer exists, scoring a coveted spot at the strangest supper club in town or setting the record straight about if beer rather than bread led to the first settled civilization.

Serviette is a magazine about all things food: where it comes from, who grows or cooks it, and how it's woven into our everyday life. If you're a writer, photographer or illustrator with a great idea about how what we eat is tied to culture, science, history and design, we want to hear it!

Send us your ideas for reported stories, profiles, personal essays, Q&As, infographics, photo essays or comics—we welcome it all.
