Here's a clue in future when you see the sign "TESCO" - avoid it. All who shop there get what they deserve. david

Sitting in my physics class many many years ago i listened to some proffesor chatting on about Einstein and others with reference to all that they gave to the world of science and mankind. As i drifted off i couldn't help thinking how the hell did somebody invent Bearnaise? one of the most significant inventions ever. To taste a slightly chilled Bearnaise with real thick english chips (fries) is sublime, the chilled butter emulsion begins to split, the tarragon and vinegar edge to the fore the hot crispy potato mound softens in the mouth then to cap it off a mouthful of good quality burgungy bringd the whole experience to a crescendo. In terms of bread to mop up sauce living in France a number of the decent restos provide a sauce spoon as part of the cutlery, though i do prefer bread!

Thank you to those who replied much appreciated David

I have noticed a number of threads covering wine from other regions (alsace, rhone etc) but i wonder if any of you could recommend good reading material and links to existing threads on the boards concerning wines from Burgundy. Much appreciated David
