Christmas Market in Cologne
We just got back from two weeks in Europe, starting in Amsterdam followed by a Viking River Cruise up the Rhine River and finishing with three glorious days in Zurich. The highlights were definitely the time on each end of the cruise, as Amsterdam and Zurich are both magical

We recently spent a weekend in New Bern, NC. It was fun, and part of the reason we think so was that we found some great places to eat, drink and be merry. You can read more about the visit here. In this article we’d like to share two restaurants which we really enjoyed, and

Our journey through Napa Valley continued at a winery we are quite familiar with but have never visited, Clif Family Winery. Winemaker Laura Barrett crafts the wines at Clif Family, from organically grown grapes in the estate vineyards, and with selected grapes from other growers. The Clif Family estate vineyards have been expanding, and she

The best dinner Cheri and I enjoyed during our recent trip to Sonoma and Napa Valley was easy to pick. We hadn’t even planned to go here, but ended up switching when Michael Muscardini of Muscardini Cellars raved about it and graciously called in for us to grab a reservation (you can read about that

We just returned from a week in one of the world’s wine epicenters, the Sonoma and Napa Valleys. This was delayed multiple times by Covid, but it was worth the wait. We visited with ten producers, five in each valley. Along the way we encountered some beautiful inns, great restaurants and wonderful people. There

The last weekend of summer was glorious in Newport, RI, with warm sunshine, cool breezes off the ocean, and as much great wine and food as anyone can realistically handle in four days. This was the 2019 Newport Mansions Wine & Food Festival, and it was, as usual, spectacular. If anything the wine was even

Duck, Farro, Swiss Chard and Cherry
Situated in a plaza on Hamilton Street in Geneva, NY, Kindred Fare is bright, sleek and elegant inside. The bar dominates the interior as you walk in, which I love, with a 12 foot high backdrop of spirits. An open kitchen includes some bar style seating, and

We were recently in Mystic, CT, passing through on our way to a wedding. Mystic is a quaint little town, with some very good shopping, a bustling town center, an old drawbridge that just might trap you on one side or the other, as well as the Mystic Aquarium. There is a lot to do

It’s been several years since we visited the largest privately owned house in America, nestled into the hillsides of Asheville, N.C., with expansive views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and a combination of history, relaxation and outdoor activity that makes for a splendid getaway. I am talking, of course, about the Biltmore Estate. George W.

Recently out shopping for furniture near our new home in North Carolina, we followed a recommendation and stopped in at Assaggio’s Italian Restaurant, in Raleigh, N.C., for a late lunch. The restaurant is located at the back of a small plaza, tucked away a little, so be careful not to miss it. It was pretty
