@patioserver I love that spot. They were blasting trap in the dining room when I was last there. Average diner age was probably 74.

returning to this restaurant based mostly on the strength of their catty responses to guest reviews

Studying German Wine Law, and this gem from @guildsomm: "Trying to understand the system by flagging its inconsistencies is to slide headlong into confusion and despair."

@jamiegoode We take a $20 deposit per person for a reservation and refund it upon arrival. Can be refunded and cancelled with only 2 hours notice. Has virtually eliminated no-shows. Essential in a small dining room.

How do people feel about no show fees at restaurants? I think it’s good that people are protecting their businesses and I expect to add a credit card to a reservation now

Arisaig, Nova Scotia now gusting to 179 km/h (111mph).. 96 knots! I can’t begin to imagine the devastation being felt in that community right now. The infrastructure, trees, powerlines, etc. are not built to withstand such an onslaught of fury. #NSStorm #nswx #Fiona

@hmmbee @JoieWrites @BurdockAndCo @BarGobo @StLawrencevan Though I understand this sentiment in theory, we always have bar seats available for friends and neighbours who just want to drop by for a glass of wine or a snack. Those are some of our favourite visits!

@JoieWrites @peter_van @BurdockAndCo @BarGobo @StLawrencevan They're all great restaurants run by fantastic folk, but I struggle to consider them to be 'neighbourhood' restaurants. For me, they're all still destinations more than everyday affairs.

@marshalederman Di Lenardo Father's Eyes Chardonnay if you can find it is a stellar option for a great price (@StileBrands). Rombauer from Napa. Mer Soleil is good for this too.

Just Googled "what is a good oaky Chardonnay" because that's the kind of day this has been. (Yes, I like my Chardonnay heavily oaked.)
