My friend Chef Amy Wolf and I just completed teaching the second baking course for culinary students on Thursday. We had a great time working together and with the students. They had some questions that I though needed answering. They had some insightful ones and I tell about an old cooks story that I think you will find amusing. I also take you on a little sound tour of my neighborhood in Lincoln Park. Thanks for listening.

CMN - RP143: Finger Lakes Wine Region

ReMARKable Palate #143: Finger Lakes Wine Region

This week, it's all about the food and wine of the Finger Lakes Wine Country, just a few hours north of New York City. I attended a tasting at New York's Astor Center, the state of the art tasting room above Astor Wines, where I got a chance to taste a number of Rieslings from the Finger Lakes paired with nibbles prepared by some of the region's best chefs. In addition, we learned about many of the fun activities on offer in the region, from sporting, to car racing, and of course, the heritage museums of Central New York.
