Bubbles are Big at Montrose

January 12, 2015 By Tanji 1 Comment

I can’t think of a better way to start the New Year than with a glass of bubbly – some traditions should never change. The H-E-B at Montrose Market sells more sparklings and champagne than any other H-E-B store in Houston! More bubbles happen here than anywhere else…

Holiday Wine Recommendations…H-town!

December 1, 2014 By Tanji Leave a Comment

One of the most valuable friends a wine lover can have is a trusted wine expert…someone who not only has extensively studied wine but who also samples a lot of wines to learn even more. That person will save you countless dollars over the years. I speak from experience!

The Big Difference Between Champagnes

February 4, 2012 By Tanji Leave a Comment

You don’t have to spend $200 on a bottle of Cristal this Valentine’s Day to make a lasting impression.  Sure, Cristal is a fabulous Champagne, but if you really want to impress that special someone look for a grower’s Champagne.

Much obliged to Masraff’s: They’re popping the cork for you on Valentine’s Day with some fabulous recommendations on bubbly, but more importantly, some little known secrets about champagne that make a whole lot of difference!

What a romantic setting! Imagine a sipping a cold glass of champagne as you watch the magnificent sun set over the rolling Texas Hill Country. That’s the view at Francesca’s restaurant at the Westin La Cantera Hotel and Spa. But, the view is only the beginning—the food is fantastic.

Wines That Go Great With Seafood

February 21, 2010 By Tanji Leave a Comment

Pairing wines with seafood can be a fun adventure. There are so many incredible white varietals that work with seafood. Experiment and see what you like best. Let’s start with crabcakes, since that’s what we’re cooking this week. The crabcakes featured have an interesting sweet yet tangy chile sauce in the mix, so I’d suggest […]

Brunch at Brasserie Pavil is the best

August 3, 2009 By Tanji Leave a Comment

Brunch here is such a treat. I love the sinfully good eggs benedict and the rich, velvety Monte Cristo sandwich. Their giant cappuccino is also incredible not to mention the champagne that just keeps flowing.
