Recreated a dish for Valentines that we had on our first date. Mondo Bistro’s Fried Chicken Liver with a Frisée Salad with a warm bacon and raspberry vinaigrette. Paired wonderfully thus a white Priorat!!!

Wishing the weather was warmer so I made sangria.

Spring is here and the weather is warming up so it’s time to start paring wines and salads. This is a baby zucchini and burrata salad that paired beautifully with this awesome Malvasia from i Feuding di Romans.

I had some free time yesterday so I took myself on a little trip to Italy. This 2016 Nebbiolo paired beautifully with my porchetta. Not sure what food to pair with that special wine, I’d be happy to help and after 30 plus years of food and wine pairings I’m pretty OK at it 🤣

Being stuck inside yesterday I decided to take myself to France. I started off with French Onion Soup for lunch. Then Salmon Rillettes for a snack and finished with Duck Cassoulet and a 2009 Saint-Emilion for dinner.

02/12/2021

I asked “do you want Asian or redneck ribs?” She answered “I want Italian ribs”. They paired beautifully with Alsatian Pinot Noir.

02/11/2021

So I recently had a regular customer asking about spatchcock chicken so I decided to make a short video. Don’t forget when you buy wine from the Hound you also have access to Chef Seth for cooking tips and pairings.

This Yellow Curry Chicken paired beautifully with this Sancerre I just got in. I love French whites with spicy food.

Winter is definitely here! How about a nice burgundy with Beef Bourguignon and crusty bread from Chicken Bridge Bakery!

01/30/2021

Salmon Rillettes with a tasty Rose Cremant that I have on sale for the month of February.
