Brisk
weather has been sweeping across the country, causing people to hunker
down in their homes wanting to cook a warm hardy meal, instead of
venturing out in the cold.
Below is a delicious and unique recipe from Steve Tevere,
Executive Chef of The Carneros Inn, a PlumpJack Resort in the Napa
Valley. Steve recommends this decadent lamb dish to be paired with the
2008 CADE Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon. The flavors of the wine
and the dish complement one another and make the dining in experience
that much more enjoyable. |

Food Trucks Thirst for Commissary Space

you a commercial realtor with an interest in banking a few commissions?
Or, do you know a commercial developer sitting on an empty strip
center? For Pete’s sake, let us know because we have many food truck
clients searching for kitchen commissary space. The ideal space would
be under 1500 square feet, located within or on the perimeter, offering
parking for a food truck and be reasonably priced. |

I
have consulted with many types of clients in the food and beverage
world. While I have had my fair share of, shall I say, misguided
individuals, I have also been privy to some very sharp, smart minded
entrepreneurs. Of the later, I have come to observe some common
characteristics that I believe have led all of them to a high level of
success. A person or team that embodies most, or all of the following
traits, in my opinion, gives them a leg up on other suitors. - They have a great idea.
