Bookshelf: 2012’s Best Beefcake Calendars

 Eating Out
It may be less beefcake than beef tenderloin, but the 2012
Chefs of the Bay Area Calendar is still sexy and queer, and 100% of the proceeds
of this Kent Taylor–shot calendar goes to Meals on Wheels of San Francisco. The
limited edition calendar features 12 amazing Bay Area chefs, including cover
chef Yigit Pura of Tout Sweet, winner of season 1 of Bravo’s Top Chef Just
Desserts, who is covered in candy sprinkles
(can you say “yum”?). Two lesbian chefs made the cut too: Top Chef’s Jen Biesty (from Scala’s Bistro) and Dominique Crenn
(from Atelier Crenn). This isn’t just sexy snaps, though; each chef offers up
one of their favorite recipes, like Jake Godby’s Salt and Pepper Ice Cream. Sure
to please the cooks in your life. ($20, MOWSF.org)
