Hello
wine-lovers,
And welcome
to Vegi-natics!! Yes, that’s right, we are meat-free this month at Vin-atics as
we try to see if pairing wines with veggie food is any different from meaty
matches.
And the answer?
Is
absolutely not! We had a fantastic menu of delicious, fresh, tasty everyday
dishes which would appeal to the whole family but which just happen not to have
any meat or fish used in their preparation. I was astounded how tasty this food
was and how absolutely-not-at-all I missed the meat.
And I
wasn’t alone – check out the report of our dinner to see the comments made by
some of our lovely guests. I think veggie food crept up on them and took them
all by surprise as well! Everyone of the wines found a supporter amongst our
guests with one dish or another – this is actually more unusual than you might
think as up until now, I think there has always been one wine which has proved
a bit of a food-matching dud!
And now it’s your turn!
So great
food, great wines, fabulous matches and a healthy night for you and your
friends – what more could you want? And you could win yourself a R500 voucher
from Cybercellar as well – look at Sue and the totally hilarious time she had
last month going Zef! All you need to do is:
– Pick
a couple of the dishes
– Pick
a couple of the wines
– Pick
a couple of your friends to come round for supper
– Pick
up the camera and take pictures and make notes
– Pick
the funniest, tastiest, most enjoyable bits of the evening and write about them
Send
it to us and win!
So that’s
it really. Email your entries or your link to editor@food24.com before the end of the month so we
can choose the winner. C’mon all you veggie-folk out there – you know your food
is AWESOME, so strike a blow for ‘meat-freedom-forever’ and show the rest of
the world!
Happy
peeling!
