I cannot put away all the items on a typical tasting card. I am not a big eater and drink very little alcohol. This was smallish palate-teasing bouches to start with a flute of sparkling; may have been Thai vinyard as I know that I had a few glasses of nationally produced wine over a number of weeks. Mains all arrived at once, equivalency to a large entrèe. Dessert light and refreshing, a first for me wrt that fruit species. Most days my nutrition intake was a few bucks, geared to requirements over hedonism, as that’s my playbook. Go large occasionally, though admittedly Brioche From Heaven at Chong Nonsi BTS wouid subvert all health goals if in my home city. vinapu 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the evening it's 7 courses. I have to stay near the bottom of the wine list! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise lose your bearings on the unchaperoned walk home from Meryton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
