Yabba Dabba Doo! Bringing my favorite Hermann Ludes Spätlese (94 Ritsch) and a Martin Müllen trocken. And ready for some Gangnam chicken!

Forgot to mention that Gangnam Tofu is on the casual side, so you’ll want to bring your glassware of choice.

Riesling event in the East Bay – spectacular! Count me in.
I’m in Berkeley. I’ll bring something fun.

Excellent! :partying_face::champagne:

We’re going to cap it here at 8 for now, since that’s the size of the table we have reserved. But please do reply or message me if you’re interested in coming as we can either see if we can reserve a bigger table or put you first on the list for the next meeting. :heart_on_fire::clinking_glasses:

Me me me! (Oakland)

Hey everyone, it looks like I wont be able to make it. Another trip came up, unfortunately. I will be in SF on the 17th but won’t be able to be there on the 16th anymore. Have a great time and I will join next time!

Fun! I’ve been having a white wine week. Dinner at friend’s house Saturday with Hermitage Blanc, Chateau Simone Blanc and a Bandol Blanc, and tonight I recreated a cold Creme de chou-fleur we had last Wednesday in Vouvray and opened a 2017 Beau Rivage. Great pairing! And tomorrow, well, we shall see. :smirk_cat:

@J.McConnell we are looking at a September 3 meeting in Albany. A few of us are looking to meet up this Tuesday at Kao Kao on College in Berkeley if you’re interested. And if anyone else is interested post here!

Greetings all! Just wanted to introduce myself and my love of Riesling. Tom here.
Found y’all as a bit of a +1 ala @J.McConnell & @Colby_Scott
Thank you for your inclusivity.
Looking forward to sharing a meal and good juice with this collective group in the near future. Hoping to make first splash Sept 3 in Albany, if you’ll have me.

Cheers!
