Bordeaux Wine Enthusiasts

....

So much for staying inconspicuous....

Lucie and I are in.

Where are you staying, tim?

I'm staying up on Russian Hill, will catch an uber or a bus into wherever y'all are.

We're at Le Meridien, 333 Battery Street

What time were you planning to go to lunch?

Good question, maybe 12 or 12:30?

We're going out for a walk down to the Ferry Building. I'll check the posts to see where everyones meeting for lunch and we'll try but if we miss everyone maybe a little drink in the room 4-5ish. I've got some Dom to start with....then??

Danny

Sounds good Danny.

I'm in the mood for some fish for lunch, anybody have any restaurant recommendations?

The closest well known fish place is the Tadich Grill, which is right around the corner from us on California St.

Just saw on another thread that Danny & Daniele ate there last night. They seemed to have liked it and maybe won't mind going again. They are out right now but may be back in time for lunch.

Great, let's go there.
What time?

Lucie and I are ready any time. Will tim be here by noon?

Tadich does not take reservations but they said a table for six should not be a problem.They have corkage, but we don't have any whites.

I don't have any wine, all I have are my wines for tonight and tomorrow.
Do we have any pinot?
How does their wine list look?

Timmy, can you get to Le Meridien by noon?

I cannot find a wine list on their web site.

With the hotel swich, we won't be there

Eventhough Jean-Nic was quitte more overwhelming yesterday to be the lunch today...

I can be there by noon. I can pull the Riesling that I had originally selected for tonight (I am bringing two other bottles tonight as well), although not sure that it would be worth it as the corkage would probably cost as much as the bottle. It wasn't expensive.

I am in room 712, tim.

Ok meet us in the lobby of Le Meridien, 333 Battery Street, at noon.
As for wine, I don't think I'm going to drink much anyway.
And you know me, I'm not afraid to drink red wine with fish.
I could bring the '82 La Dominique but I would have to get to K&L at some point to source a bottle or two for tomorrow night.

Why don't I just bring the 82 La Dominique and you bring a St. innocent Stefan.

We are meeting downstairs at noon and will walk over to the Tadich Grill.

Initially hooked up for lunch but when walked into the noisy filled warm restaurant for lunch the smells of the seafood got to me. Had it last night in a quieter environment but very tired today and wanted some peace and a snooze. Sorry for being a party pooper but will recharge for tonight.
