Do you think that is insulting when they have a wine listed next to a menu item?  Are they suggesting you're not educated enough to choose your own wine?  I don't drink wine so I have no idea.

There are two wines that go with everything:

Red wine: Coca Cola

White wine: Beer.

I don't think it is a bad idea...not only is it good marketing, it may turn you on to something new.

I recommend iced tea with all meals.

PS:  Plain iced tea = yuck.  Sweet Tea is the bomb.  I'll send you a post card from the cool side of the island.

I think so, Brain, but how will we get the Spice Girls into the paella?

They have huge margins on every single bottle.  As a rule, the price of what you pay for a glass of it, is what they paid for the bottle.  So every glass after the first glass if profit.  It's a brilliant technique.

I've always thought that tea tastes like a coke after all the ice has melted. Blech.

Sweet tea tastes like watery coke with lots of extra sugar in it. Double blech.
