BERSERKERFEST 5 IS HERE!!!!! 8pm PDH Midtown

Michel_Abood · October 21, 2010, 12:27pm

It was dried seaweed and I wasn’t sure everyone would want that. It also bumped the price up a tad and I was trying to keep it at the same levels as the last few years. As it is, the next BF will be more expensive.

Jay, I need to talk to PDH today, let me know what you want and I’ll see if I can change one table for you.

J a y H a c k:

Not that I want to upset the apple cart, but I will anyway. The thought of 5 ducks per table for those of us who enjoy eating flavorful wines that go better with non-poultry foods, followed by a day of wimpy Sushi on Saturday, makes for a lot of bad pairings. Would you have any objections if I walk around the corner to PDH and arrange for one table with some other dishes and, let’s say, only 3 ducks, to match the real wine that some of us prefer.

And BY THE WAY, I would like to have a table with maybe a flight or two of Keller, Donhoff, ZH etc. followed by one or two flights called “What’s all the fuss about 2007 Cali Cabs.” Rebecca and I could offer one of the QC single vineyards and a Two Hands Charlie’s Patch for those flights. Anyone up for that?

Yeah, I know that QC is not from California, but it’s good.

Juat what an organizer of an offline wants: a pain in the ass…

and a Two Hands Charlie’s Patch for those flights

…with decent tastes…

I asked for permission first.

Does that mean you want a seat at our table? I’ll bet that between us we could put together a few good flights with flavor.

I have a mag of 01 Frederick Emile that I’ll bring, what ever table I wind up with

$$ sent

Ted_Erfer · October 21, 2010, 5:19pm

Payment for my crew sent.

Also - I agree about there being a bit too much duck last time. It was delish - but I thought a little less duck and another dish would have been great.

Woops, I was planning around the assumption that this was on the 5th. I’ll keep yall update as to whether this weekend can work.

paypal incoming!

Michael_Sopher · October 22, 2010, 5:34pm

I am out for this round.

James_Kapon · October 22, 2010, 7:39pm

Michel,

Can you put Zach down for 1?

Steve_Saxon · October 22, 2010, 8:06pm

Paid!

Gregory_Dal_Piaz · October 23, 2010, 12:41am

I am coming as well.

At Kane’s table.

Will be looking for good wine.

Michel_Abood · October 23, 2010, 5:55pm

Good luck with that.

ToddFrench · October 23, 2010, 6:00pm

I know what GDP is bringing - I’ll be at that table several times.

Ken_V · October 23, 2010, 6:06pm

Is there room to merge Kane’s table with Leo’s table? Or can we at least put these tables next to each other?

L_e_o_F_r_o_k_i_c · October 23, 2010, 9:34pm

Are you bypassing my Italian table!? Traitor!

Brad_Kane · October 23, 2010, 9:48pm

Sorry, Ken. The “Convoluted Theme” table is fully booked. No prob getting our tables near each other, though. It’ll be easier for Greg to throw things.

J_a_y_H_a_c_k · October 24, 2010, 3:58am

We have a table for people who want duck plus other food due to Michel’s good graces. Duck, chicken, pork and beef. See the real food and real wine table thread. I am flexible on a theme, but we will have at least one flight of wines with power - that may be a 2007 Cali Cab flight. We can precede that with a wines with finesse flight. I may break out a 1994 Trimbach Pinot Gris SGN for dessert.

Brad_Kane · October 24, 2010, 4:13am

I don’t think you’re allowed to have that wine, Jay. It’s part of the anti-flavor wine elite.
