A recent review by Bon Appetit Magazine listed ten American wine bars they thought were really special. Selections spanned the country: Honolulu (what a great place to be sent to do a review), Philadelphia, Washington DC, L.A., Houston, New York City, Atlanta, Seattle, Cincinnati, and San Francisco. For the purposes of this article I will concentrate on [...]

There is so much to look forward to during summertime in Canada. Loads of festivals. Lots of barbecues and picnics. Except for today, because after a slow warming, we now have rain. Heat is forecast, but I begin to lose faith. Oh well, it ain’t snow. Explore your fridge and wine rack, and should they [...]

While surveying the contents of my wine rack I can’t help but make a mental note of what would make a nice addition to food. Sad, but true. Not everything is going to be drinkable, so there has to be a plan B. Then again, I don’t want to focus so much on wine that [...]
I’ll bet you thought I was going to suggest actual food for brunch. Though partly true, my main concern is the wine to serve with it. Okay, so 11:00 in the morning may sound a bit early for wine; then again, Father’s Day is too special to limit ourselves to plain old tea or orange [...]

Cannelloni is fiddly to make, though great to eat. My family likes it and the girls enjoy trying to fill those tubes with whatever they like. Favorites include beef and cheese of course, but also spinach and other vegetables.
Numerous types of cannelloni exist using fillings such as ricotta cheese, apple and walnut and more. Each one [...]

Independent restaurants across North America may felt the pinch this past eighteen months or more, but some have kept the faith offering great food and service and managing to either scrape through or even flourish during the recession.
Houston, Texas, was already a happening place before a few more restaurants joined the ranks of existing [...]

Though the idea of forgetting which wines I have tried may sound crazy to readers, I have become hopelessly confused in several cases. Bottles from many wineries have graced my wine rack for sure, but which varieties? The Sauvignon Blanc or the Chardonnay-Rielsing? A white Zinfadel or Merlot? While a number have made for memorable tastings [...]
Having enjoyed a run of good luck with white wines lately, I have been loath to tip them or use them for watering my beans (saying which, I wonder what would happen?) Instead, I dug out some recipe books and having found numerous selections that call for dry white wine, have experimented in the kitchen. [...]
Girls’ nights out are few and far between so my friend Chris talked me into doing it right, at a real restaurant, where they served bread in a basket and we wouldn’t want to take the kids. Meals were a bit more pricey than at a fast food place, or even the next step up, [...]
