Best of Wine-Knows Harvest Trip to Champagne, Burgundy & the Rhone

Follow the link below to the list of superb French wines . . .

Wine-Knows: Fine Wine & Gourmet Food Journeys for the Discerning Traveler: Best of Wine-Knows Harvest Trip to Champagne, Burgundy & the Rhone:

"Here's a summary of la creme de la creme from our September trip. Superb quality/price wines have been so noted. ... "

The post above prompted me to upload some Halloween photos, costumes inspired by our 2 trips with the super duper folks at Wine-Knows Travel.  Too bad the resolution isn't better. I'm a bottle of Beychevelle, and Allan is a bottle of Beaucastel.

Reminiscing About 3 Star Michelin in France

View while waiting for dinner at l'Auberge de l'Ill in Illhaeusern, France - 3 star Michelin restaurant
I was in conversation with some folks at work, and found myself reminiscing about a 3 star Michelin experience at L'Auberge de L'Ill in Illhaeusern.

If you're researching 3 star ratings, then check out this table of Michelin 3 Star Restaurants in Europe 2010, 2009 and 2008.

Michael Mina in Westin St. Francis SF is Closing

It's a shame, it's a shame, it's a shame, on so many fronts.

First, I was a big fan of the Compass Rose which preceded the current Michael Mina Restaurant. It was a comfortable, warm, and welcoming lobby space.

Second, Michael Mina is a very good restaurant, that ate away at public space in the lobby area of the St. Francis.

Third, and lastly, do we really need another steak restaurant, especially in the Westin?!

Read more about this closing on Paolo Lucchesi's post, Michael Mina to close next month, reopen as Bourbon Steak.
