I was lucky enough to be in Burgundy this fall, and like most visitors to this hallowed ground I had a pecking order of greatest hits I wanted to check off. Chambertin Clos de Beze is my fave vineyard, so that was on it. The wines of Domaine Dujac have been long time faves, so that was another proposed stop. But in wine, as in life, it’s the unexpected that is often the one that sneaks up and grabs a hold of your heart and for me that was the wine of the Maconnais.
Starbuck’s caramel macchiatos can move on over. This is the best thing to have when you’re doing a Gastown shop hop on a hot summer day. But also who am I kidding? If it was available in the winter, I’d still be getting. Expertly extracted cold brew, sweet cream that’s drizzled in caramel sauce and a sprinkle of salt, this is the kind of drink that even coffee purists will be getting.
I love coffee so when a good brew comes around, I feel compelled to shout it on the rooftops. Since I write for a mag, here I stand on my rooftop and here I shout: The cold Nitro coffee at Alimentaria Mexicana’s new coffee shop,is the best coffee I’ve had since, well, I can remember. It’s sweet cold Mexican coffee with hints of orange, mint and cinnamon infused and will launch you into your day faster than a jetpack strapped to your back as an alarm clock.
So I’ll start by saying I think Maxine’s makes the best Old Fashioned in town—and if you’re ever looking for me on a Friday after work in the summer, chances are I’m kicking off Happy Hour with one of them on Maxine’s very lovely patio. But ’tis the season for getting festive, and I mixed it up this past Friday night with a cozy booth and one of these very lovely homemade eggnogs.
