I am just back from a tasting in Brooklyn and it is Friday night, what’s happen? Friday night used to be for my famiy and I: The food discovery. We used to make food from all over the world. The funny part, I just had my parents on the phone today and they were still doing it. They were having their Japanese night with many rough fishes and I can tell you they love that!!! Of course with a glass of Sauvignon blanc ;)

For me it will be more simple and so delicious…… let me give you a description:

A Pâté made by my parents: porc meat a bit spicy; with a peace of bread it is unbelievable. You should come over haha

On my way back home I stopped by my grocery store and bought some cheeses:

  • 4 Years Old Gouda: bit creamy and salty in the same time with beautiful flavors in the finish
  • Blue cheese: not too strong; the non moderation is recommended :p
  • Saint Albrey if you like strong cheese you should go for that. Creamy with its own character, strong!!!! Sensible palet it is not for you ;)

Sometimes the advantage to come back from an In-store tasting is that you can have few samples. I had a successful tasting in Brooklyn with my Rhone Valley wines from France and also with my St Supery wines from Napa Valley, CA. I brought back the St Supery Cabernet Sauvignon 2005. Let me tell you something: The wine by itself is already super good, but with cheeses and a pâté from home arhhhhhhh I do not want anything else. Well let’s have some old school rock music…. Dire Strait, Police, Journey “don’t stop beleive in” (love this song).

Rock, wine & cheeses. We sometimes try to make complicate dinner to impress friends; but this one is the best ever!!!!! A least it makes a French guy SUPER happy in NYC tonight :-)

Ho by the way DO NOT LEAVE your Saint Albrey alone in the fridge: Wrap it well!!! It could avoid you some funny surprise when you will open the fridge hehehe bad smell!!!!!!!!!

As my dear friend Georges would say: “What else?” ;-)

 

Cheers my friends
