Recommended Posts

I know I'm late but I'd like to attend if there is room

Edit: just me by myself .

I'm a NYC expat. Since coming to the darkside, as many of my freinds have said, I've found that most good things in NYC are made in NJ.

Missed everyone also. In addition to going thru eGullet withdrawal we only had one Chinese meal--dim sum in Sydney so we can't wait to see everyone and break chow mein noodles together. Tommy--I'll bring your favorite chardonnay.

Jon never specified a date or preference, or even a yeah, but was active on thread

I'm having a bit of trouble with that weekend. I've got a family thing one of those two dates, but my relatives refuse to pin down which day it is. I may not know for a few days.

What kind of alcohol goes well with Chinese food?

Furthermore, what kind of alcohol would you recommend to an alcohol newbie that would go well with the banquet? (I tend not to like overly dry wines -- that said, I'm willing to try just about anything.)

Gewurztraminer or Reisling (although I prefer German ones because of the lower alcohol content) or any other Alsace white like Pinot Gris. High acid is the key.

Are there different kinds of Gewurtztraminer or Riesling? Does year matter? I'm thinking of going to a wine store this week and don't want to look like a fool. On the other hand, I may just let the salesman do the talking. :blink:

i'm not sure where you live, but there are a few stores that will certainly steer you in the right direction. nancy's wine, near the upper west side is certainly a good start. website. in fact, if you poke around the website you can probably just make a choice there (they'll all good, for all intents and purposes), and pick it up anywhere.

wine, schwine....I've always ben a fan of light, dry and slightly lemony beers with chinese...Asahi is a great match, Tsing Tao sold in America is a little less dry than that sold in China but still good.

UGH! You won't get my vote on that...its a strong personal preference of mine...unless I am eating Hong Kong Style Cantonese, I prefer beer, tea or sparkling water with my Chinese. Different strokes for different folks, as they say!

Soba, A wine I love with Chinese food is Trimbach Alsace One. Its a blend of 5 different grapes, very fruity with good acid. Its $ 8.99 and readily available. Anouther good choice is any 2001 German Kabinett.

It kind of sounds like there'll be more than enough booze, and I'll probably drink water [sue me!] Does anyone have a request/suggestion of what I can bring? Or it's no problem to bring a bottle of anything off this list...
