Voltron Posted August 26, 2011 Report Share Posted August 26, 2011 Goose Island Summer Ale while waiting for the Preservation Hall Jazz Band, opening for Tedeschi - Trucks. Hope Debbie liked the surprise, and who wouldn't really. Have fun. I had cocktails at Zero Zero with a client/friend, and now taking in the Giants game without alcohol. The fact that they are losing to the lowly Astros again is forcing me to drink though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augsburger Posted August 26, 2011 Report Share Posted August 26, 2011 White Burgundy was a no show so we compromised with a Châteauneuf-Du-Pape duo, 1967 Jaboulet then a 1990 Château Beaucastel. The Krug vintage1989 Champagn and the Châteauneuf-Du-Pape duo meshed nicely with the fried chicken, grits and collard greens entre. If Daniel Bouled did fried chicken and collard greens this most assuredly would be the meal. Dinner did not suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luvdunhill Posted August 27, 2011 Report Share Posted August 27, 2011 Mint Julep 3 US fluid ounces (89 ml; 3.1 imp fl oz) Bourbon whiskey 4 to 6 sprigs mint leaves granulated sugar, to taste Preparation Put mint, sugar, and a small amount of bourbon into the bottom of a mixing glass. Gently muddle the mint and sugar, then let stand for a bit to allow the muddled leaves to release their flavor. Strain and pour into a julep cup (or similar vessel), rotating to coat the sides. Fill with ice, then add the rest of the bourbon whiskey. Garnish with a lightly slapped small mint sprig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shellylh Posted August 27, 2011 Report Share Posted August 27, 2011 (edited) 2010 Festivo Malbec and pizza (with Hatch peppers, kielbasa sausage, fresh garlic, onions, tomatoes, and goat cheese (on my side, hubby doesn't like goat cheese on his pizza)). The wine is OK, the pizza is fantastic. I really love the kielbasa and Hatch peppers together. Edited August 27, 2011 by shellylh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
