The Restaurant Guys Natalie MacLean on Quaffing Summer Wines *V*
The Banter
The Guys reconcile salumi and salami and talk about a high-end chocolate scandal.
The Conversation
The Restaurant Guys are eager to speak with Natalie MacLean, renowned wine and food writer, to talk about pairing wines with summer foods, especially vegetables. She offers insightful advice on choosing wines for weddings and other gatherings.
The Inside Track
The Guys talk with Natalie about the beauty of toasts.
“ I love making toasts because I think it just seals the celebration like the bow on the present. It's a symbol of unity. That's what toasting was in the old days. People would literally clink their glasses to make sure the wine spilled a little bit into each other's cup. Well, and they were also making sure they weren't poisoning each other. But that's another issue,” Natalie MacLean on The Restaurant Guys Podcast 2007
