i'm happy to say i've managed to convince someone who isn't a port lover that port and chinese food go very well together.
So well they made a show about it =)

Meh. Lots of other wines are better pairings, IMHO
Happy to visit duck house next week and get silly.

Re: Port and food pairing?
Well, I mean, Chinese food is generally good; port is generally good. Having both together, therefore, is generally good, but I'd prefer almost any kind of wine with Chinese, except Pinot, I guess. Happy to be proven "wrong" through trial and error!

when work and kid quiet down a little, we'll go grab dinner at this place, food alone is worthwhile.Chris Doty wrote:Well, I mean, Chinese food is generally good; port is generally good.

Re: Port and food pairing?
Based on this evening, I can highly recommend the following pairing: duck strongly heavily with garlic, coriander and thyme, with Graham's 20yr tawny; delicious.
