Been several weeks since I received the Sassicaia 2023’s. Going to decant this for 90 mins before we leave for dinner. Sacrificing a bottle at this early stage to see if I should purchase even more than I already did, given this had the same 💯 rating the 2021 has, I have high hopes. At this stage, aroma and color are fantastic.

Home Sunday trying out the new Gymkhana “at home” sauces. Made Tandoori BBQ Pheasant legs, and Butter Pheasant on Jasmine rice, with Sarah’s homemade Naan, and a perfect pairing with the 2012 Weingut Josef Leitz Rüdesheim : Riesling Magic Mountain. The Gymkhana sauces are fabulous, frankly better than any of our local Indian places. Very flavorful and nuanced, many layers of flavors. The BBQ was also super aromatic. Highly recommend.

I hate best of lists, so I thought I’d make one 😂. These are the top 10 things I ate in 2025, based on one criteria, how much I personally liked it… the list isn’t force ranked, as it was hard enough to narrow it down to 10… I might also mention, that while not on the list below, my favorite overall dinning experience would be dinner with my wife at The Eighty Six in NYC. And if you do take the time to read this whole post, which of these 10 would you like to try most? Have to start the list with the amazing Pasta ala Presse at Major Food Group’s The Grill in NYC, still my favorite pasta dish in all of NYC The White Truffle Pasta at Orsini in Zurich Roast Chicken at Maison Close in NYC, their wine list isn’t great and they don’t allow corkage, so I haven’t been back, but that chicken was spectacular Caramelized Onion Pizza with Gruyère, Nueske’s Bacon, and Morels, finished with fresh herbs and Maldon’s Salt in our Ooni, my backyard in Connecticut CONIGLIO AL FORNO - roasted rabbit saddle, confit legs and rabbit cappellacci at Santi NYC While service was a major miss, and the duck wasn’t served hot, it was room temperature, the honey lavender duck from three Michelin star Eleven Madison Park in NYC still makes the list, a true testament to how great this dish is… Hand-Dived Scallop with Cafe de Paris Butter at Noble Rot Mayfair in London which I paired with the 2020 Charles Lachaux, Bourgogne Aligote 'Les Champs d'Argent' which was a brilliant match A sphere made from puffed gluten, filled with smoke and topped with cream, a langoustine tartare, almond cream and some osetra caviar at The Alchemist in Copenhagen The A5 Wagyu Sando at NYC’s Sip & Guzzle Chef David’s A5 Wagyu topped with osetra caviar at Cote NYC. My post on this dish got a number of haters, I might mention all haters who never tried this… the saltiness of the caviar worked well with the fat of the Wagyu, and it was a perfect single morsel of ‘land & sea’
