Nuovo logoWe had great success serving Nuovo artisanal pastas at the Back Bay Cafe. The Ravioli fit in with our menu of cuisine made from well-sourced, high quality ingredients. They cook up quickly and we served them either with our own kitchen-made sauces or with a drizzle of olive oil and a grating of fine Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.

Two little piggies at workStarted as a small charcuterie by three Frenchmen in Greenwich Village in 1975, Trois Petits Cochons (Three Little Pigs) quickly made a name among the finicky foodies of New York City. In order to reach a national market, they moved to Wilkes-Barre, PA (where the rent is probably a lot cheaper). One of the original three piggies, Alain Sinturel, still owns the company and still makes pates and mousses from all-natural, high quality ingredients.

It's that time of year again. As I write this, the temperature is near 80 degrees with a warm breeze. Tonight, the cold front hits, bringing rain and a drop in temperatures. It's time to think about holiday feasts. In this first round of feasting wines, we bring back new vintages of old favorites, as well as a couple of newbies. Sharpen your pencil and your taste buds and start making notes on what you'll serve for Thanksgiving or Christmas or Hannukah or New Years...or what you'll take to somebody else's house as a guest. Life is too short to drink bad wine.

Classy Whites from Dr. Loosen
We’ve carried the “Dr L” Riesling from Dr. Loosen for many years, and it is many customers’ “go to” white with a little sweetness. A couple of weeks ago, I had the pleasure to meet with Dr. Loosen’s East Coast sales rep and taste some more of their wines. Here are two that I think are a fine addition to our store.
As far as introduction to the Dr. Loosen winery, no one says it better than they do on their website:
