The cover features the title of the magazine in bold red letters to draw the attention of whoever sees it. The cover art utilizes the "rule of thirds" which the jacket hanging in the first third and the table being in the middle third. This is the Fall Travel Issue released in September of 2019 and depicts a decadent meal on a neatly set table.
The articles within the magazine correlate with the high end dining shown on the cover. In the opening article, Food Destination: Your Kitchen, it shows a picture of prime ribs covered in seasoning. The article talks about how the inspiration for the meal comes from a trip to Paris which definitely follows the luxurious travel feel of the magazine. Another article titled, Noma features a restaurant in Denmark. The restaurant overlooks the water and is set in a breathtaking greenhouse. The meal that is described is the epitome of fine dining: Starfish with cardamon toffee and saffron.
As for the advertisements, the majority of them follow the theme of food and adventure. The Holland America Line ad shows wine, spices, and food tasting as a way a way to urge the foodies reading the magazine to consider the trip. Of course, wine is also advertised a great deal in this magazine. The ad for Robert Mondavi wine features a lovely hillside scene of the vineyard "that inspired it all" in the background of the image to show the authenticity.
