QOTD: Most interesting US restaurant this year: Hell’s Backbone Grill in Boulder, Utah.
Great organic restaurant where Western and Himalayan influences meet.

Good luck fighting the weather! If you happen to come to Cologne in Germany, reserve your table at Le Moissonier – the boss of the restaurant is sommelier by profession, so you won’t be disappointed by the wine list!

My wife and I have been to the Napa Valley Grille many times, love the fact that you can order flights of wine. Don’t see that too often in this area. As for restaurants that we have been going to frequently, both in Hoboken, NJ, and both BYOB, Robongi (sushi) and Anthony David’s (italian).

Hope you feel better soon.
Nice show…

Groetjes,

Classico

QOTD: We like the Dish Restaurant in downtown Lincoln, NE. They do a great job with my wife’s gluten allergy.

I’m missing my old favorite sushi joint in Brooklyn, Geido, but loving the food here in Sonoma. So far I’d go for Girl & the Fig. Feel better GV – I’m all stuffed up as well. Maybe we caught a little Obama fever.

Hope you get to feeling better G…… Get some of Mom’s chicken soup.
QOTD——- Del Frisco’s ….. what a wine list and great food

QOTD — I currently have two favorite restaurants: Zingermans Roadhouse in Ann Arbor, MI and Rutherford Grill in Napa, CA.

I love the Dark…this would have been a good EP for Halloween??

QOTD: Capital Grille in Providence RI. The wine list blows my mind!!

Never had Roundhill?!!! Since the 1970’s, they were one of the movers in production that spurred growth of a California Style of Chard. which was spearheaded by Jed Steele at K-J. Though the Van Asperens have by now retired, I’m sure the successors hold up to their history as a more than dependable producer in the fighting varietals market.

I used to keep extra cases of mags in stock for walk-ins with parties to supply.

A little further back, to around 1990, or thereabouts, Flora’s Chard was one of the highest rated in America. The still make delicious wines, fairly priced, across the board. And Sean Garvey always did a remarkable job repping his, and the Komes’ familie’s product. I LOVE their Merlot!

P.N. in this price range is just “wine”, Napa Valley, or not. Pass.

You Didn’t mention that Trinchero’s are the dynamo family of Sutter Home, since the 1940’s.

QOTD: Jeff Ruby’s in Louisville, KY. It’s a killer steak house w/ a great wine list. Ordered my first bottle of petit verdot there. Shout out to PV It was awesome.
