QOTD: I’ve only been served lobster once. I was at a family reunion as a young child, sitting on a table with other young children. None of us knew how to extract the meat, so the lobsters sat on the table for 20 minutes and were then taken back!

Nice show, I do love me some Gewurztraminer and you DID NOT just include Barry Horowitz in the show! I think now I have do bow down to your for the ability to include any and all pop-culture references into the show. I will not, however, bow down to the New York Jets. They will never be my team (Go Hawks!!). Cant wait for the trash talk to start when you visit us here later this 2008 season. QOTD: I do not like lobster. Im a weirdo who isnt into seafood.

GV, if your old childhood friend’s family name was Lee, he was almost certainly Korean and not Filipino or SE Asian. “Pahtbingsoo” is served everywhere here in South Korea, even in McDonald’s and BK’s to conform to local tastes. “Paht” refers to adzuki (or red) beans; “bing” is the Korean pronunciation of the Chinese character for ‘ice’, while “soo” is water, so together redbean ‘icywater’ is what the first person to name the dish thought was appropriate. ‘Shaved’ or ’shaven’ ice literally translated would sound awfully strange in Korean.

Anyways, sorry for the late reply; I’m subsribed to the podcast and only watch on the subway when I have time. GREAT show!

Love gewurtz. Especially this time of year. Great thanksgiving wine with seasonal spice to match with squash, sweet potatoes, turkey, even auntie’s pecan pie.

Nice! Gewurz is one of my favorite whites, I love the generally sweet smells against the slightly spicy, crisp taste — now I gotta see where I can find the hugelheim

Also, des rouleaux de printemps (vietnamien) / spring rolls (vietniamese) would go very well with Alsace wine

There should have been an italian gweurztraminer there too. I seriously adore the HofstÃ¤tter from Alto Adige. From high altitude they have mora acidity which make them better with food. (I think)

Im from an Indian background so basically I’ve had all types of indian food, primarily from the north where my folks are from. Its true gewurtztraminer, some riesling, and also alabariÃ±os bring out the complexity and layers of spices in indian food. It also tones down the excessive spiciness and concentrates the flavors.

QOTD: Who doesn’t like lobster?

QOTD: Yes. Robster Craws Rawk.

Lobster is pretty good. I haven’t had it too many times.

Gewurztraminer on the other hand is awesome. I’ve seen the Dr. Frank before and never felt like dropping so much money on a bottle of Gewurzt. I’m definitely going to get my hands on those other two though.

QOTD: I’m originaly from a small acadian fishing town in New Brunswick, Canada, where lobster is king! 75 years ago though, my grandfather, a fisherman, would throw them out to sea when they stuck to their nets. They were considered a nuissance, like jellyfish. Nobody ate those creepy crustacians then it seems. Times have changed, I LOVE lobster and you’re so right about pairing gewurtztraminer and lobster, yummy, makes me miss home…
