... It was really good to see everyone, as some of these folks I only get to see once a year. Sunday we went to brunch with Thumbelina, LilyDove, and Mot at a lovely seafood place, then dropped into a wine bar and picked up some of the Penfolds Old Grandfather Tawny Port I love so much. I swear to the gods, that stuff is pancakes in a bottle. We also picked up some blackberry balsamic vinegar and...

... our rings hadn't come in. Next, on to the gay and lesbian center for a long-overdue no on Prop. 8 sign for the yard. An hour later, I was on the road again to my favorite store in the world, The Wine Country in Signal Hill. I walked in about 6pm, to a quiet store with just a few employees, and one or two customers. Tonight, I'm buying wine for our rehearsal dinner, which originally was just a...

учитывая мою текущую склонность к вину, просто не мог пройти мимо: Due to a new EU trade rule, wineries can’t use the word “port” on their label unless the wine was actually made in Portugal. California’s Peltier Station Winery, however, discovered (or should I say invented?) a loophole: they called their new dessert wine “USB” and put a tree with USB roots on the label. And that’s just the beginning...

...Lemon Tart ($10) with cinnamon marscapone, and a lovely (though fingerprinted) piece of chocolate. I probably would have liked it if I hadn't been so obsessed with the first dessert! The wine list contains some great imports which are seriously under priced. Best buys are the 2007 Austrian Lenz Moser Pinot Gris ($4.50/glass, $26/bottle) and the interesting red 2006 Lenz Moser Blaufraenkisch...

You'd think from my recent spate of reviews that all the restaurants I go to are amazing - and if you're looking for a review to dissuade you of this, well this is not the one.  Number One Wine Bar was a really wonderful dining experience, and I walked out of the venue energised and excited about food, in particular Spanish food. My evening began rather nicely, with a glass of NV Ayala Brut...

... on brioche with spiced fruit compote felt like a taste of Christmas. It was set off beautifully by a 2007 Katz Pinot Gris ($53) from the same region. The success of this restaurant has led to wine pricing discounts through increased purchasing volume, and it’s pleasing to see that Philipe has elected to pass these savings on to his loyal customers. If you look at the wine list, some of the...

.../ Nvidia GForce 6200 w/ 250 MB (dual monitor setup) WoW runs fine in WinXP. I am trying to get away from re-booting, since I do my actual computing in Linux Linux OS: Linux Mint (Gnome desktop) WINE is current version using WINEHQ's repos and apt-get Alright, so I have went through the steps listed here and added this to the config.wtf file: SET gxApi "opengl" I did add the key to the regedit...

Here's another inexpensive one that is interesting because the owner, Matthew Page , was one of the pioneers of Sydney’s gourmet pizza industry, starting the very successful Wood and Stone in Surry...on Thursday Night 'Veg Out'. You’ll be able to see why they’ve lasted three years in a market where burger joints come and go. Burger Bar 118 Devonshire Street, Surry Hills Ph: (02) 9690 0465

I bought a few bottles of wine for my housewarming, and my investment was repaid severalfold: my wine rack is now full! Is this normal? Do I just need to throw more parties to keep myself in booze? I'll have to make a note of this. Thanks to all who came. The house really does feel warmer now. The prize for farthest traveled goes to Neil and Angie, who came all the way from D.C. They were really...
