Tomorrow, I’m hosting a wine tasting.  You can read the details of the tasting under the tasting link on the right side of this web page.  So, after work, I went to Moore Brother’s Wine Shop on 20th street in Manhattan.  They were happy to help me pick out all the wines and even deliver [...]

I went for a run on the path between the Hudson River and the West Side Highway this Friday evening.  At 72nd street , there is a set of 50 steps that I run up and then I run through a tunnel.  Immediately after the tunnel there is a dog park.  As I was exiting [...]

After a reprieve of winter’s wrath, we are back in the gripping cold of a Canadian air mass here in Manhattan.  It was everything I could do to make the one mile trek from the office to my apartment without freezing.   As I walked up Broadway, I noted the quickened pace of the others on [...]

As I sip my wine on this first Friday in December, I wonder how it is possible that time went so fast this year that it is the first Friday in December.  The holiday season is upon us.  Thanksgiving is but a memory and this past Wednesday, the tree at Rockefeller Center was lit in [...]

I moved to Hoboken, New Jersey about 3 years ago.  The first night I was in the area, I went online to www.hobokenmenus.com in search of a wine bar.  I found one that looked promising, but upon arrival I was disappointed to find out that they had changed it into more of a sports bar.  [...]

This week seemed to last forever even though Monday was a holiday.  It was a perfect week to head over to one of my favorite wine bars in Chelsea, Bar Veloce.  There are two other Bar Veloce locations, but the Chelsea location is the most generous when it comes to space.  I went with my [...]

Sometimes wine just cannot wait until the evening/night arrives, or maybe it is that sometimes I can’t wait until the evening/night arrives to drink some wine. This particular Friday proved one of those times as the 5 of us that were in the office headed out to Blue Water Grill Café. It was kind of [...]
