Perhaps the best local quarantine take out I ever had. Thank you Paso!
Businesses, especially restaurants are being forced to get quite creative, and pivot in a lot of unique ways during this time. We recently had perhaps the best take out ever the other night, from a place in Paso called Somms Kitchen. It's a one man show by chef/owner Ian Adamo. Find out what made it so special, and how Adam and the lady he fancies tried to do the same with their Cinco de Mayo dinner last night, and how it measured up, I'll give you a hint, it didn't.

Three Blind Mice, a blind tasting masterclass
Do scores matter? -NO To prove this daring theory I asked three of my friends that are studying to be Master Somms to blind taste the same 4 wines from the comfort of their quarantine. The overlap was immense and there were some huge differences in their deductions as well. They easily displayed though that everyone tastes different things when they taste wines and since that is true, then a score cannot justly describe a wine's quality. Time to put the numbers to rest and have fun with wine again!
