Greetings,
A Rebours was fantastic. Great food, very interesting and
some truly great wines.
Next week, let's take Scott/Jason up on their offer/suggestion.
Vin du jour is "Mediteranian Wines" at Corner Table. As an added
incentive for Jason, we're also including anything "Rhone."
Put another way, adding Mediteranian to Rhone was a good way to
make peace w/ certain Burgundy/Barollo types.

From Jason:
Scott Pampuch is about 4 weeks away from re-opening the n.e. thyme caf?
spot. He's running into kitchen code issues (with the new ownership not
much got grandfathered in). It will be called Corner Table. I've talked to
him about the Thursday group and he looks forward to cooking for you again.
His sous chef is a guy named Keven Kalstren (I think that's the spelling)
who trained in Bordeaux. Before ne thyme closed Annette Peters and I had
possibly the best lobster based seafood bisque I've ever had, made by this
guy. Annette immediately picked it out as French-trained.
