Today I re-entered the workplace, leaving behind my poor gazumped son Henry in the care of his mother and taking on the role as Brand Development Manager for Vranken-Pommery Australia – that’s Champagne, people. Yes, it is my task to show-case Vranken-Pommery’s Champagne portfolio to all of the sommeliers out there in restaurant land with such Champagne as Pommery Brut Royal, Cuvee...

The represented regions were Rheingau, Franconia and Baden. I predominantly focused on the Rheingau trying to get a thorough view on the 2008 vintage there. And I must say there were a lot...

Congratulations to Amanda Cohen! Her wonderfully conceived and executed vegetarian restaurant, Dirt Candy, turned one at the end of October. It’s no small feat, given the economic climate. But Chef Cohen’s attention to detail and perfect grasp of flavor profiles and textures are lost on no one. In the short year that it’s been around, Dirt Candy has garnered numerous accolades and...

On Saturday I had such an adventure! The nice people at Miele (pronounced Mee-la, which is the first thing I learned on the day) invited me to the BBC Good Food Show in Birmingham, and having never been to Birmingham I said yes. After a pleasant trip up on the train I met up with the others, Cara from gourmet chick - Kit from the cooking forum and Jan from what do I want to cook today and Lauren and...

I'm sitting here watching Monday Nite Football (GO SAINTS!) and icing my knee after one very long day. Up at 5:30 Am this morning and out at 6:45 after breakfast and a hot cup of coffee. The rain started at 6:30 causing me to change my attire at the last minute. With long johns, first layer of pants and shirt, second layer of warm coat and hat, then a rain pants and coat layer topped by a camo-orange...

Reviewed by The Wild Boar Looking for good restaurants to sample on holidays is always a bit of a scary task for us. Having a bad meal in London isn’t so bad since you can always make up for it another day, but holiday time is quite limited so I like to make it every meal count if possible. It didn't help that Edinburgh has a fair number of good restaurants according to Urbanspoon and several...

Sticking with the food theme, let me call attention to John Colapinto’s great article on the Michelin Guide in the recent New Yorker food issue. There’s a lot in this article that should be of interest to org theorists and institutionalists, especially given former guest blogger Michael Sauder’s important work (with Wendy Espeland) on the [...]

On Saturday I drove down to Ludlow for the Medieval Fayre. Ludlow is a market town in South Shropshire and is a bit of a food lovers mecca! It is famous for having more Michelin starred restaurants than any other town outside London! I'm not sure whether that's true but Mr Underhill's is very good! When we arrived, the place was absolutely heaving with people. I couldnt believe how busy it was. You...

Europe's Monaco acts like a magnet for the wealthy - if they don't want to live there for the tax haven reasons they almost certainly want to visit. And while the recession might be hitting ordinary people, and they are cutting back on their holidays, even with losses on the stock markets the ultra rich still have enough money not to notice a big loss at the Monte Carlo casino. But there's more to
