line of the day – ‘did you really believe in the magic wand’

Ingrid seems a bundle of fun and although she brings a good attitude to the table, she takes forever to get her point across. Gary’s tempo is on a different level and although she’s probably great solo, for me, this pairing doesn’t quite work

    This show is what a wiseman referring to when he once said “They all can’t be winners”.

    Wow that was a boring episode! What happened? Is it possible to fix the quality of the video and audio?

  • I have been an advocate of you doing a food and wine pairing show for quite some time and this is a great segway into more of these types of shows.

    Looking forward to Part II and all I can say is she is “simply delicioso.”

    To me, watching my hero Gary V review wines with a gorgeous and fun guest is as close to porn as you can get with a G rating..

    Cheers!

  • I love Ingrid! She reminds me of my family!

    I think she is right about women being intimidated to order wine.

    You should have more food people on the show.

    Gosh Ingrid is controversial! I thought she was a lot of fun and I think I’ll whip together some of those tuna/mango tacos. Thanks again for all the interesting viewpoints. And…for all the wonderful pairing information. I look forward to tomorrow.

    This, being a family show, I’ll refrain from posting the dozen or so observations that came to mind during this episode.

  • hmmm . . . I was drinking the gewurtz already when I decided to pull up todays episode! PS I had a gewurzt last week with the perfect food pairing – Warm scallops wrapped in bacon atop a mixed green and tomato salad.

    Try it, you’ll like it.

    Not a bad start. I gotta say, I’ve never seen Ingrid’s, but man is she crazy! I’m liking the fact that you are putting in more 2 part epics though.

  • Event Producer

    I love all the shows, this one included. Ingrid is great to watch. The rawness of your shows is appealing. But, PLEASE stop using the camera mic and add some body mics to get rid of the room echo and increase the sound quality.

    tonight I had some mexican food with some Valreas(cotes du rhone village). A perfect example of how wine and food need each other. This is a soft strawberry driven wine that won’t change your life by itself. However, with mexican food, the fruit flavors really come alive and counter balance the spice of the food. This wine paired far better than any beer I have had with mexican food.
    I think it cost about six bucks at T.J.’s here in Los Angeles.

  • I am rushing home every evening now to get online and see who Gary is gonna have on next! Another great guest, looking forward to part II!

    I’ve never had anything except a rioja (as far as I remember!) so this is a great direction for me to take.

    Thanks again Gary and Mott!

  • Good to see food pairings on the thunder show, and the interesting part for me at least is the fact that you included almost all of my favorite foods.
    I of course being from México: Oaxaca cheese, avocado, mangoes, olives, yummers ! although I have to say that the Gewürztraminer is a bit of a surprise, wouldn’t have thought of it, maybe Riesling, but well, interesting nonetheless.

  • I’m really starting to enjoy these guest-based shows, I wonder if she gets really drunk in episode2!

    No QOTD? (even QOT half day?)

    I never had heard of Ingrid, but I think she’s fun. Interesting that someone with the name Ingrid Hoffman would be latina.

    I may have to use her idea of tasting & spitting food like wine– all the flavors without the weight gain!
