Wine, Food & Tornado in Georgia

A perfect day to end up in Georgia. Tornadoes within 100 KM, thunderstorms like I have never heard before, and here I am hanging out at a conference at Chateau Elan Winery in Braselton, Georgia. 

While the conference was great, the company wonderful, the food was way down the scale compared to our Okanagan wineries.

Genetically modified tasteless lettuce kicked off the meal with a dressing I was not able to identify.

The steaks were nicely done, but ruined with a thick chunk of gorgonzola cheese trying to melt on top of them. The mashed potatoes tasted more like mashed truffles with a dash of potatoes.


Dessert options were a cheese or chocolate cake and neither could salvage the bad dinner. This is how much I was able to tolerate of the cake.

But at least dinner company was amazing, lots of fun was had, even the famous shoes were there (see East Coast Dining).
