the thing i love about traveling is the discovery of new things. to see how people of all kinds of background and culture go about being passionate about the same things i am passionate about.

while waiting for my connection at jfk on my way to paris, i had a flight at vinovolo, a nice little wine bar. a flight is a series of wine glasses that contain just enough to taste each one and get an appreciation of each at the same price of ordering 1 full glass of 1 type of wine.

this flight was about wines from new york state:

- millbrook chardonnay 2005

- bedell cellars merlot 2005

- hermann j. wiemer riesling 2005

the experience was quite interesting and i loved it. i wish we can have a place in hong kong that can do this kind of thing.
