Congrats!
Really hope the site continues to maintain its character and doesn't turn into an epicurious or foodnetwork.com. Also, wondering why the need for Weight Watchers sponsored ads, in any case, but especially if so much money has been raised. It's the Weight Watchers, not the sponsorship that I find slightly off-putting

I am so happy for you. I wrote a feature about you, Amanda, some years back at the time you said the New York Times didn't have a test kitchen and your own kitchen had very little counter space, either. You are in the Big Time now. Should you need any help, I am an iPad away.

Congratulations all, as it seems that this is the direction you want to travel. I have been attracted to Food52 because of its creativity AND integrity, and I just ask from where are your financial backers to make their financial return?

I'd be interested in knowing that too . . . and seeing the deck and spreadsheets used to make the pitch! ;o)

Such fantastic news! You've created such a unique niche that enriches so many on a daily basis (an incredible feat). You totally need to saber a bottle of champagne (or ten) in celebration! Looking forward to what's ahead!

Congratulations on your financing success!! Being a consumer, it is a mystery to me how blogs make money and why they need outside money to expand (OK, I do understand that building a new office and new kitchen is expensive). One of these days, I will find an article that lays it out for me. I love that you explain your thinking steps when telling us about changes or expansions. I value how thoughtful you are in taking those steps and how much you depend upon community feedback. You are my #1 site for all things relating to food!

Congratulations to Amanda and Merrill and the whole team. Looking forward to more and even better from and for Food52. For me, the best part has not been contributing, but has been being stretched out of my comfort zone. I thought I knew a lot about food and cooking, but through this youthful and vibrant community I have expanded my horizons in ways I never contemplated before.
Best wished for continued success! <3
