How is the wine?

It showed really well. I don’t have a lot experience with wines from Veneto, so this was a good education.

Veggie pizza last night. No wine.

They still serve food on airlines?

Continental served a cheese burger. Was the strangest burger I've ever had.

the meat tasted like a hotdog, and the bun was like a mcdonald's biscuit. Very weird taste. Couldn't sleep on the plane after that because the food was so bad and I was hungry =(

mmm maybe a steak some way with something tonight.

Wow, surprised myself tonight. Can't say that I've been a huge fan of fish as it's generally a very subtle flavour (salmon, oily fish, etc, excepted). Tonight I did a halibut (poached in a court bouillon) with a citrus basil vinaigrette, steamed fingerling potatoes, and new carrots. I finally get it. Very nice, light, pure, natural flavours. Served with a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. Excellent.

Had a spaghetti dinner at the club's annual meeting last night. Caesar salad and garlic bread. '05 Clos LaChance Zin....

Hah. That's funny. I heard of these really being out there.

Tuna steaks on the grill. I'm using K-Paul's recipe for the spice mixture.

Went to a little local bar in old town Tustin and was surprised to see fried chicken and waffles on the menu. It was no roscoe’s, but still hit the spot.
