BEYOND BORDEAUX, the fourth episode of Inside La Place de Bordeaux by ARENI Global, discusses a pivotal moment in the history of La Place: the exact moment when the fine wine market became a truly international fine wine market. Twenty years ago, wines from countries like Chile, Argentina and Australia accounted for less than one half of one percent of the global fine wine trade altogether — despite the presence of Almaviva and Opus One on La Place. But all that changed in 2010, towards the end of the global financial crisis. The rise of less expensive airfares due to cheap oil prices, and more affordable accommodation options like Airbnb led to the rise of gastrotourism with its focus on visiting the best restaurants in the world. At the same time, both executives and tourists alike started visiting premium wineries directly – and they wanted to experience these wines again once they got back home. By 2016, approximately 30 million bottles of foreign wines were being consumed in France, a figure that wouldn’t have seemed possible just ten years earlier, when “fine wine” in France was limited to Bordeaux and Burgundy and occasionally Champagne. A greater need for global distribution became clear – and La Place de Bordeaux was in the perfect position to respond to this need. #BeyondBordeaux #Bordeaux #LaPlace #ARENI Enjoy the fourth episode of this acclaimed series featuring Pauline Vicard, co-founder and executive director of ARENI Global, and editorial director Felicity Carter by listening here: https://lnkd.in/eRupckG8

How to secure a same day seat at Michelin-starred Boia? And more tips... Boia De translates to "Oh my" or unexpected & this place was certainly unexpected. It's a Michelin-starred restaurant since 2022 in a strip mall in Little Haiti, that's unexpected. With only 28 seats available, it's usually takes several months to get a reservation, unexpected. The only signage to let you know you arrived at the correct destination is a marquee that has an exclamation mark, unexpected! Here are my "unexpected" tips to getting a seat immediately (no wait) & creating an exciting, unexpected and accessible wine pairing experience that makes you leave saying, "Oh my!" 1. You don't have to wait a month to get a Resy, if you're "in the know." You can start by being unexpected -- arrive when they 1st open at 5:30pm for one of their coveted bar seats. They don't allow reservations for the bar, so there's seats available on a 1st come, 1st serve basis, but you have to arrive when they open & expect others to be there ahead of you. IMO, the bar is where it's at! It would have been a different experience at a table -- less interaction, less performance. At the bar, you can watch as dishes are prepared & plated in front of you and interact with the fun & informed Boia De team about the food & wine. 2. They only have 15 dishes on their menu & they recommend ordering around 3pp. We ordered 9 & shared all of them. While it's not designated anywhere on the menu (so another ITK tip), you can order some things in 1/2 portions, like the salad & by-the-glass wines, which we highly recommend. The 1/2 portion of salad was only $10 & huge. It fed 3 people amply. I can't imagine getting the whole salad, especially if you're tasting so many other dishes. 3. They have an incredible by-the-glass wine list and also allow 1/2 pours as previously mentioned, so you can really create a fun & accessible wine pairing menu by ordering nice-sized 1/2 pours of wines, which is what we did.

*** Gastronationalism "#Gastronationalism" is a term that #describes the use of food to promote #national identity and heritage. #Food, with its deep cultural and historical ties, has often been an #integral part of national #identity. However, in the #context of gastronationalism, food is #deliberately used as a tool for national promotion, distinction, and #sometimes even political means. Here are some #facets and implications of gastronationalism: #Promoting National Identity:  Many #countries showcase their traditional dishes as #representations of their culture. For instance, sushi is often associated with #Japan, #pizza with Italy, and #tacos with #Mexico. These associations become integral to the #country's image and identity.

Spanish vs. English News: A Culinary Twist David Beckham's recent 49th birthday celebration in Spain at the renowned Tempos Vega Sicilia winery has generated buzz in both Spanish and English media. However, a closer look reveals interesting differences in coverage. Spanish news outlets tend to focus more on the gastronomic aspects of the story. They mention the specific winery, Tempos Vega Sicilia , and delve into the details of the menu, including the possible reason Victoria Beckham opted for a different selection. Additionally, they might reference Gordon Ramsay's past faux pas of introducing chorizo into paella, a culinary sin in Spain. In contrast, English news reports often omit these gastronomic details. They might simply mention the birthday celebration at a Spanish winery without naming Tempos Vega Sicilia. The specific menus and Gordon Ramsay's paella transgression are likely left out. This comparison highlights how cultural nuances can influence news reporting. Spanish media seems to place greater emphasis on food and culinary experiences, reflecting the country's rich gastronomic heritage. English media, on the other hand, might prioritize broader details of the event. 🤔Have you noticed similar cultural influences in news reporting❓Share your thoughts in the comments below❗ English and Spanish press links: https://lnkd.in/duS7S9PX https://lnkd.in/dNtFptuy https://lnkd.in/dEjN3h7s https://lnkd.in/dyNUPpiN English and Spanish yellow press links: https://lnkd.in/dBC_sa4q https://lnkd.in/dhDwz8EH #BeyondTapas #SpanishWineCulture #GastronomyTravel #TasteofSpain #SpainLove
