We're turning #WineIntoWater for one week only, and all you need to do good is to drink wine!3/21/2017  It only takes $30 to provide clean drinking water to someone living in an developing nation for 20 years. We've been proud supporters of clean water world wide, and with partnering with charity:water, we've provided over 400 people with that basic right. So with World Water Day on March 22nd, we want to do more.
When you purchase a bottle of wine from our selected list from March 22-29, we will donate 20% of the list price to charity:water. Can't make it in? Donate online below. Once you donate, you will be able to follow the progress of your donation and the good it can do! Or you can always drop a few coins in the large wine bottle by the front door the next time you come see us. We will match your donation by a nickle for every quarter you drop in. Drink wine, do good.  As featured in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch on February 14th:
“The difference in flavor between locally grown carrots and bagged supermarket ones is striking,” [Chef Joe Hovanessian] says. “Roasting them brings the natural sugars out. When you get that blackened edge, they’re caramelized. There’s a fine line between a little black and burnt. If you burn them, start over.” “The lentils add an earthiness while the light grill on the kale makes a textural change,” he says. Hovanessian likes French green lentils cooked just to tenderness. “They hold their shape well.” Every step in his soup recipe is considered. “The grated carrots add another dimension. We reserve a few, uncooked, to use as garnish.” See the full article and get the recipe here! |
