Why this book is different
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
Finally...a food and wine book that is a great read, not a typical totally boring food and wine book. No knock on the Andrea Immers of the World but her style (which is the prevailing literary style in this genre) is in a word BORING!Mr. DiDio on the other hand takes a novel approach. The book has a you are there feel to it; especially his banter with culinary luminaries such as Daniel Bouloud, Rick Moonen and Don Pintabona and his insightful interviews with world class winemakers such as Paul Draper of Ridge, Jim Clendenen of au Bon Climat, Bob Lindquist of Qupe and Bob Sessions of Hanzell. I give this book 4 chef's hats!
Finally A Comprehensive Guide To Wining & Dining!

Not being a wine connoisseur I found this book to be extremely educational. The easy going dialogue that permeates the book makes you feel like you're right there with the tasting crew. The suggestions for which wines to choose with various meals are informative and extremely useful. A great reference book and a great gift idea...with a bottle of wine, of course!

You'll learn something AND have fun

In this GREAT book you'll learn all about how to match wines with food whether you're cooking at home or eating out. All of the information is presented in a fun, easily accessible style that makes the book an easy read and a handy reference to keep around. I've already referred back to it a few times. The guide on reading the winelist at a restaurant is a bonus!
The Best Book!

At long last, a book that solves the age old mystique for those of us who are not oenophiles, of what the heck to drink with what we're eating. Mr. DiDillo and Ms. Zavatto deserve and award!
