1999-2 Great Years (and a ringer or two)

Number 30 —  April, 1999

 

Our Next Event

Let’s hear it for crispy duck confit salad! The wine was pretty good, too. It’s really interesting that once again the Georges de Latour ’77 was the favorite, followed closely by the ’78. At least we’re consistent.

 

Our next event will be at the California Grill, Saturday, April 17, 1998 at 2 PM at the California Grill. We will have the room until 6 PM.

 

The theme of this event is “Great Years (and a ringer or two)”.
