All Hail Good Times!

Back in September I wrote a story on the Australian Wine and Bacon Food Pairing, and how I won the grand prize. A dinner for six prepared by Dave Townsend, the California Sales Manager for The Grateful Palate.

Well my friends, tonight is the night.

I am sharing this fantastic feast with @DeekandLong, as well as @WINEormous. We can’t wait to try everything. Tom Plant requested that he be allowed to choose the wines, and who am I to refuse his request?

I sent the menu to Tom but I still don’t know what he will select for the pairing. I do, however, have our menu.

I can’t wait until tonight, and to share the story. I think I will get a jump on it by letting you get a peak at the menu -
