I came across a thread on boards. ie a few days ago started by a chap who feels that he's been swindled every time he receives a wine in a restaurant that is of a different vintage to that advertised on the wine list.
How many restaurant wine lists have you opened up and found yourself completely lost over? It has happened to us all, and for many of us it is a regular frustration. Poorly constructed wine lists are all too common, but worse than that are wine lists that are there not to add value, but to maximise profits.
Communal tables are all the rage in Munich and Dusseldorf, particularly in the beer halls, with or without food. Even the beer tents in Belfast had them last Christmas. The banter was tremendous.
