Food

Episode two of wine tasting adventures with SH and the Cow is dedicated to food. It is always a treat to venture into a restaurant and share a few snacks with the person you love. After the bubbly flight at Argyle we crossed the street to Dundee Bistro. We ordered ourselves a nice 2001 MARKUS MOLITER Riesling, Mosel-Saar-Ruwer, Germany. This was a crisp cool wine and it went nicely with the Ceasar Salad and the truffled fries that we shared.
After our snack we drove to McMinneville to get settled in our rented room at the Hotel Oregon (This will be episode three). After checking in and checking out the room we ventured over to La Rambla. It was a quiet evening in the tapas bar. We chose to sit at the bar - always the best seat in the house. There we each ordered a cocktail: the cow had a hot martini and I enjoyed a whiskey sour (it had a fancy name but was basically a ws). We ordered three items and not one of them disappointed. There was Carro de Queso (three artisanal cheeses), Mejilliones al Jerez (Mussels with Jerez sauce), and deep fried green beans with aioli. We sat and enjoyed the bar for a couple of hours and walked down the street to the roof top of the Hotel Oregon. But wait...the day isn't over yet. You still have episode three - The Hotel!
