Breathe it in deeply.. lol Port, deep red or a dry white.   I thought that I was quite savvy with wine selection. You have the body of the wine, swirl it around in the wine glass then take a strong inhale of it before consumption and you should be good.  Umm.. nope.  There is more.  Allow me to share with you, what I learned recently at a wine tasting etiquette class.  Here are the DOs Look, swirl, smell and sip Do find out the format: Wine tasting can be casual or formal with seating and it helps to find out which one you are attending, you may have to dress the part.  Do take notes: a small note book is invaluable at these shingdings because after a few sips (at least for me) everything becomes fuzzy or pretty funny.  By giving each sample out of a score of 10, you can keep track of the ones that really left a good or bad impression.  I found out that I wasn't suppose to swallow, but then, where is the fun in that?

Calling all Foodies... As TDC has been resolved, what becomes of  TTRW2017?   For the last couple of years, my friends and I look forward to Restaurant week in September as an opportunity to taste everything!!  The promotion and coordination between the eateries were flawless as they offered pre-planned meals at varying price points.  But as the time draws near, my good friend asked, 'Why can't we have  TTRW2017, every month?' Pizza in a brick oven at Kava Restaurant I thought that she was brilliant!  We had Bessfest in July 2017 and by all accounts, it was a huge success.  TTRW can be a themed monthly event of hand selected restaurants from each zone location.  Imagine 101 Arabian Nights themed week and escape to Apsara, Hakka, House of Jaipur or Namaste India for lunch or even dinner.  How about an International Themed week where skillful chefs can showcase their spectacular plating each and every day!  ...
