Have not decided what we will bring to the Noreetuh dinner, but it will not be burgundy or riesling.

102

Can we do wines @J0hnEhrl1ng doesn’t like?

Oh, that’s much easier! I did print out WB name tags for the other berserkers who are going to be there if anyone wants to use them

104

Natty orange wines are banned.

I was about to say ‘I’m in!’ but if that’s the scope of wines you don’t like, I don’t have any so I can’t play along.

Last text about the menu was this: (though it’s not ‘final’)

Rough outline of what you can expect to see:

  • tuna poke

  • assorted musubis (1 with caviar)

  • 2 appetizers (typically 1 veg & 1 protein)

  • pasta (TBD depending on menu)

  • Mochiko fried chicken

  • Taiwanese flat cabbage

  • calamansi glazed roasted duck

  • assorted desserts

What was that, “fine, Gavin, but only in Jero?”

You got it, bud!!!

Looks like I’m going to have to be sure sure seat @gavin.f and @J0hnEhrl1ng at opposite sides of the table. Fortunately that will be easy as @gavin.f brings his own entourage, so there will be ‘padding’ on either side of him, presumably

Ask if they have the ribs available. They are goated.

Sad to hear it, was looking forward to meeting you in person versus the Goodfellow chat

@Sandbergsm and @danieljzou you’ve moved up to the confirmed list - please let me know if you still plan to attend!

@M_Royer said he’d be there, perhaps as Eoly-Amity Winegrowers Association? Edit, yup, I see Royer and Arabalis there!

Love that Ganuza is back, wow I loved that soooo much last year, Einaudi as well.

Also, I kindly request that any Berserkers in attendance who find a gem to taste please lead me that direction!
