The Beginning

Since I don't have any new material yet, I will be posting and reviewing some of my past food experiences within the past few years. The first post will be a culinary review of my family reunion at Napa, California. Note: for any other food lovers, this is one of the BEST places in California that I have been to so far. So here it is...
  This was the sample of the most exquisite Jamon Iberico. As seen in the picture, this was 99.99 per pound. Although it was thirteen bucks for a couple of slices, it was totally worth it. The cured pork simply melted in the mouth. It was not too salty and the natural pork flavor was not overpowered. The best part of this was the little strip of fat. The fat was rich and creamy with a hint of pork flavor.  





This is of the beatutiful Napa countryside.







This was a piece of tuna that we got for one of the family dinners. Althought there were some stringy part towards the end of the loin, the majority of it was tender and melt-in-your mouth consistency.





Oysters from Tomales Bay oysters. A slight presursor to Hog Island.








This is by far the best ginger beers in the world! It does'nt have such a bite to it as Reeds's. Its very sweet but it has a true ginger flavor.

My uncle in Hawaii got me hooked on this stuff. This is just one of the numerous brands. It's so good I can drink it like water.
