Setting the Table: The Transforming Power of Hospitality in Business

First to recommend

Description

I love dining in NYC, and I really love Danny Meyer restaurants. Danny's new book is an autobiographical story on how he grew his empire, but it also weaves in business and management lessons. Most of the nuggets can be applied to any business. This is a fun read for anyone in business and/or into dining.

Grateful Palate Artisan Coffee

First to recommend

Description

You can tell I like the Grateful Palate. Dan has had some of the world's best winemakers create their own custom blends of coffees and stamped the bags with the wine labels. It's genius and the coffee rocks. Try some!

Rustic Canyon Winebar

First to recommend

3 people recommended this item

Description

There just ain't many real good restaurants west of the 405. Rustic Canyon reminds me of a neighborhood-version of Tom Colicchio's Craft and now I go every other week. Clean presentation with a focus on fresh ingredients. The menu changes every month, but the stalwarts like the Moroccan Salad and Roasted Chicken stick around. The problem is you can't get a reservation for weeks in the small, former Chinese restaurant on Wilshire. The wine by the glass list is solid, but I wish it would change up a little more often. They keep the 3 large community tables open for walk-ins, so give it a try.

Laguiole is the standard for cutlery and corkscrews. The sommelier corkscrew comes in a variety of sexy woods and natural materials. Be admired when you open your wine.

2003 Vieux Telegraphe Chateauneuf du Pape

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

2003 is a killer year for CdP and the Vieux Telegraph is one of my favorites. It's big and backward and will age for a while, but it drinks pretty damn nice right now if you like huge Rhone wines. WS had it at #53 I bought it up at $36.95, but the prices are rising. (via Wine Spectator)

Adventures on the Wine Route: A Wine Buyer's Tour of France

First to recommend

Description

If you are into wine, or just learning to enjoy it, this is a book you will enjoy. Follow one of the pioneering importers of french wines through his early trips to France in the 1980's. The stories of the unique producers flow seemlessly as the pages turn.

Metrokane Rabbit Corkscrew

First to recommend

Description

My buddy from Carnegie Mellon, Ed Kilduff, designed the revolutionary Rabbit back in 1998. It has gone on the be one of the best selling housewares items ever. Elegant ergonomics combined with attractive pricing make it easy to pull corks. Great gift for just about anyone over 21.

French Rabbit Wines

First to recommend

Description

Sustainably farmed vineyards packaged in the eco-friendly Tetra pack. Not sure if the wine is any good, but it is sure sexy looking. I bet the hipster kids will like this for their parties. I think you will see more innovation in wine packaging coming soon. (via Notcot)
