This is something I don't understand, restaurants and people who make a big deal over "beverage pairings".



Some wines are too strong & do diminish the flavour of certain dishes.

Some pairings is not without merit.

Next time just post, I've never had a meal that comes with wine pairings. Does that actually improve the dining experience?

That way you don't come off as an idiot.

Then you plan on dying a poor, shriveled soul. Too bad.

Look, I've been you. It isn't worth it. Try to enjoy life a little.

Good for you. I spend mine on things that bring me pleasure.

To each their own I guess.

Can't say I have, I decide to spend my hard earned money on productive things instead of throwing it away on nasty wine and expensive food.
