SF Bay Area/Peninsula June 15 offline

Ok, what the hey…

How about starting a June offline thread -

I’m looking at June 15 or 22.
Just FYI - June 21 is Fathers Day, if it matters.

Last time, there was mention about LV Mar in Redwood City.
Is this still of interest?
Other options?

Wine theme - should we wait for restaurant choice?

Whatchall say?

15th works for me.

I think either can work for me.

At the moment I can do either. Any venue works for me.

Either date works. Didn’t we talk about a syrah theme?

I can do either date (very slight preference to 15th; might have to work late on 22nd and join you guys mid-dinner). Any locale is fine too.

So let’s put down June 15.
Andrew, you wanna check with LVMar?
Or somewhere else?

Are we going with Syrah??

Here are the meat offerings at LV Mar:

Chuleta de Puerco 10oz bone-in natural pork chop, fingerling potatoes, asparagus, spring onions, almond butter, morita chile jus 24

Asado 11oz grass fed rib-eye, chorizo, baby potatoes, artichokes, confit fennel, chimichurri sauce 30

Solomillo a la Parrilla seared 8oz natural hanger steak, chorizo and potato croquettes, arugula and romesco sauce 23

Chorizo de la Casa house made pork & beef sausages, rancho gordo lima beans, spinach, chile de arbol sauce 19

Pechuga de Pato Con Moras seared duck breast, wild mixed rice, dried cherries, spinach, sweet & sour berry sauce 24

Cazuela de Chocoyotes potato dumplings, wild mushrooms, serrano chile, asparagus, peas, pumpkin seeds, tomato coulis 17

Yum! I’m interested in a syrah theme.

If there’s room, can a buddy of mine join us?

Only if he has Chave.

I thought you liked funky Aussie shiraz, no?

Oh no you din’t!!!

If it says Shiraz, you can’t bring it. If it says Grange, okay.

I’m interested. 15th works better for me. I have some interesting Syrah to contribute. Are we specifying Northern Rhone or Syrah from anywhere?

I vote Syrah from anywhere to make it easier, but open to whatever everyone chooses.
I am extremely limited - have some young Gonon but that’s about it.
So will source if needed, or bring a white/bubble.

Please add me to the list.

If someone wants to bring SQN, I’m not going to stop them.

but please bring an aged one newhere

Should I add Bill Klapp to the list?!

If you can get Bill Klapp there I’ll change the theme to 1989 Haut Brion and friends.
