Invitation to a Private Party
With his outgoing personality and penchant for storytelling—not to mention that Australian accent—it’s easy to envision chef James Saftich hosting his own cooking show. However, the San Antonio-based private chef prefers to keep a low profile or, as he puts it, to “fly under the radar.” That’s understandable, given the nature of his work, where the emphasis is on private.

San Antonio Food Bank Community Garden
There's no denying that home gardens are popular right now. Seed sales are up... make that waaay up right now... as spring meets the recession.
At the same time, there's rising interest in community gardens, especially in urban areas. San Antonio is no exception, and the San Antonio Food Bank created a new, five-acre garden last fall designed to both feed the poor and teach residents how to cultivate their own food. With the help of generous sponsors and donors, the food bank hopes to see the garden flourish.
