DINNER WITH THE WINOS

My husband and I belong to a group called the "Winos" and yes, we do drink and learn about wine. (Hey, I didn't pick the name) The Winos met for their yearly Holiday Dinner at a place near the Dayton Mall called CENA. You might want to check it out online to see if there is one near you if you don't hail from the Dayton, Ohio area. Very unique and positively worth a second visit. Buffet style salad bar that has a complete selection of everything you might want for appetizers and salad. Several cuts of beef, shrimp, fish, chicken, sausage, and pineapple were served tableside on large skewers as long as your card is green side up. Red side up means you don't want to be bothered. Several wines were served with each entree and I found the wines to be a nice variety and complemented the foods nicely. Check it out and let me know what you think.And if you are interested in forming your own wine tasting group - GO FOR IT. There is always something to do with this group. Everyone sends out emails regarding events around the entire area and some even travel abroad to different explore wine country. Great fun especially if you enjoy wine. Did you know there are American Wine Society groups all over the nation? Check it out to see if you have an AWS in your area. Another good way to learn about wine and meet folks who are experts at it. We love our Wino friends and spending the evening celebrating the holidays with them is always special. Cheers.
