Restaurant Recommendations
The Wines of Château Beaucastel

Japan Restaurants
On our two-week trip to Japan, we discovered excellent restaurants, historic shrines and beautiful parks & resort areas. But it was the cultural habits seen in the daily lives of the Japanese that caught my eye. Check out this post!

Beaucastel and Bacchus in Buffalo
Have you ever seen a restaurant wine list that offers wines at (or modestly above) retail prices? Rare, right? How about Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Échézeaux 2002 for less than half the current auction price? I found such a place in Buffalo NY.
