@patioserver I love that spot. They were blasting trap in the dining room when I was last there. Average diner age was probably 74.

In the style of @shaunlayton, guess the bathroom.

@KurtisKolt 🤮🤮🤮

Studying German Wine Law, and this gem from @guildsomm: "Trying to understand the system by flagging its inconsistencies is to slide headlong into confusion and despair."

@pfbvan That section is a favourite section of mine!

[Peter Van de Reep @peter_van]

@guildsomm Bolzano?

[Peter Van de Reep @peter_van]

@shaunlayton Got one today from him.

[Peter Van de Reep @peter_van]

@KurtisKolt @Krug You take the Krug and I'll take the Coche Dury and we'll share?

@jamiegoode We take a $20 deposit per person for a reservation and refund it upon arrival. Can be refunded and cancelled with only 2 hours notice. Has virtually eliminated no-shows. Essential in a small dining room.

@carrotadventure Sick!! Nice throwback!

[Peter Van de Reep @peter_van]

@shaunlayton @WildebeestYVR Can confirm. Everything is so good.

[Peter Van de Reep @peter_van]

Really hope my folks are doing okay. This is the beach next to their cottage. Wow.

Arisaig, Nova Scotia now gusting to 179 km/h (111mph).. 96 knots! I can’t begin to imagine the devastation being felt in that community right now. The infrastructure, trees, powerlines, etc. are not built to withstand such an onslaught of fury. #NSStorm #nswx #Fiona

@hmmbee @JoieWrites @BurdockAndCo @BarGobo @StLawrencevan Though I understand this sentiment in theory, we always have bar seats available for friends and neighbours who just want to drop by for a glass of wine or a snack. Those are some of our favourite visits!

My latest article for Sweet Potato magazine spotlights the ineffable joy and warmth of dearly loved neighbourhood restaurants.

@KnifeNerd Cappellano Barolo Chinato, mature German Riesling, really high quality natural process coffee, agarwood/oud, ambergris, oakmoss, sunbaked pine and fir forest trails in the summer.

[Peter Van de Reep @peter_van]

@patioserver Oh no! Well, when they're open again. So good.

[Peter Van de Reep @peter_van]

@BaruchelNDG This is the show I needed this week! What an incredible cast!

[Seamus O'Regan Jr @SeamusORegan]

Listen to @GregFergus.
Let him know he doesn’t stand alone.

@marshalederman Di Lenardo Father's Eyes Chardonnay if you can find it is a stellar option for a great price (@StileBrands). Rombauer from Napa. Mer Soleil is good for this too.
