  • Dear me…I just wondered for what there has been so many comments for today, when I began with this episode…and Now I understood…Hehe, so my part:

    Answer to QOTD: A breakfast with my sister in a Taiwanese shop eating some Chinese fried bread and soybean milk. For me, it is the most pleasant thing to have a breakfast with someone I love, as I have beeng living on my own since I was very young. That is my precious treasure.

    Thank you Gary, nice question and nice episode once more.

    QotD: I would have to say that the best meal I had, I shared with my boys at a Japanese restaurant. We all had sizzling chicken teriyaki with rice and toasted ourselves to surviving another hard year of making our dreams a reality.

    QOTD: I have a friend who made a little 10 course sampler meal for the final four when Illinois went a couple of years ago. Among the hits, 2 different Mussel courses, Moroccan Chicken, and a Celery Root soup.

    I agree with the Solanera score, it was passable, but nothing really to write home about.

  • Johnny

    Gary first let me just say, You rock man! Love the show, i currently live in Tx but will be returning to Hyde Park, NY for school and I am most definably planning a trip to the Wine Library in the near future.

    QOTD: I’d say the best meal i’ve ever had was when I was in Hyde Park with a bunch of my classmates, I had octopus tentacles braised in a red wine sauce with garlic bread and i also got to try the BEST rack of lamb i’ve ever had in my life

    Keep up the amazing work gary

    Great Episode. I’m in for a case based on the look on your face alone over that last wine…

    Best meal. In Montalcino in July….view of the entire valley from the patio. Tomato soup, homemade mushroom ravioli with truffle sauce, Florentine steak in rose petals…and a light chocolate gelato dessert.Oh yeah, the 2 bottles of 1990 Salvioni brunello. 🙂

    QotD: My greatest meal was one for my High School Graduation. My family went to the Emeril restaurant in Orlando, Florida. I was with all of my family so maybe that’s what made the food taste amazing.

    QOTD:

    Two slices of Famous Ray’s Pizza and a Coke. (While I was in the hospital).
    Yum.

    QOTD: It’s a tossup: 1) Lunch at the French Laundry with my niece. Started with a glass of Schramsburg champagne. Then a half bottle of a white burgundy and a half bottle of a red Bordeaux.

    2) On a beautiful San Franciscan day, we took a boat to Sausalito and walked back to San Francisco across the Golden Gate. Then we stopped in a small neighborhood grocery and bought some apples, cheese and some juice. Truly it was a memorable meal.

    Give me Burgundy and duck any day.. this was a memorable meal from two highly acclaimed chefs, Sam and Zach Curnow, in Adelaide Australia, the restaurant was The Wine Underground:

    Crisp skinned duck breast, braised leg, shallot & lotus root mille-feuille, bok choy, aromatic coffee sauce.
    Awsome

  • The greatest was a home cooked meal, a Sunday dinner prepared by my mother with roast beef infused with fresh garlic and a simple salt and pepper rub. Roasted potatoes, carrots, and celery accompanied the meat. Of course we had a wonderful gravy made from the juice of the roast. I remember being fond of mashing the potatoes, and the other vegetables together and topping the mixture with the fragrant and rich gravy. Dipping a piece of buttered sweet French bread in the gravy added to the bliss of the experience.

  • Grape Expectations

    QOTD: That’s a very hard question. I have been fortunate to eat many fine meals in my life. But what makes a meal memorable is as much the people you share it with as it is the food you eat. My most memorable meal not in a restaurant was a back yard Cajun-style crawfish boil in Plaquemines, Louisiana. (Can’t tell you how fantastic potato salad is when it’s made with potatoes left over from a crawfish boil!). As for restaurant meals it’s a toss up between a great meal with family at Star Canyon in Dallas and a great meal with friends at Border Grill in Los Angeles.

  • Jim

    Best meal to date: Kevin Restaurant in Chicago with the boys from Rusden Winery in the Barossa. Fantastic company, profound food and wine. A waterfall of Gruner Veltliner, Volnay and Barolo. Tres ridiculous. Kudos to all involved!

    Gary,

    Thanks for the tip on the Cotes du Ventoux, after that glowing review, let’s hope you have the inventory on this gem to fill the orders!

    Cheers,

    Jim

    La lanterna in riomaggiore. insalata di mare, seafood linguini, and an amazing view!

  • zak

    The best meal I ever had was in Guadalajara Jalisco for a wedding and popped into Cocina 88 where the chef personally showed me to the kitchen and explained all of the meats. At first I was worried as I basically only eat chicken but then I saw the most amazing sight of my life. I had a fresh Argentinian steak wrapped in bacon and a forgettable merlot. The bill was ~80$. I found out that Bono had been there the week before me. Surreal.
