RCC Israel # 24 – Tishrei 5779

September 5, 2018September 6, 2018 / Avi Davidowitz / 1 Comment

Scheduling an RCC for Tishrei is always tricky.  There are very few usable days in the month because of the chagim - early in the month is hard becasue of all of the prep for each chag and pushing it until after means that you are very close to the next month. Doing it before … Continue reading RCC Israel # 24 – Tishrei 5779

RCC Israel # 23 – Elul 5778

August 15, 2018August 16, 2018 / Avi Davidowitz / 2 Comments

Another RCC has come to a close. This month our chefs Uri & Bracha papered us with an Asian inspired menu - and each dish really shined. I would point out the highlights, but really, they were all incredible, the Sashimi had incredible freshness and heat, the Pho had some incredible flavors layered in a … Continue reading RCC Israel # 23 – Elul 5778

RCC Israel #22 – Av 5778

July 11, 2018July 11, 2018 / Avi Davidowitz / 2 Comments

As Ashkenazic customs of the 9 days prohibit the consumption of wine even on Rosh Chodesh Av we had the RCC brought forward by a couple of days to accommodate. While every dish that we had was wonderful (and beautifully plated), the clear star of the night for me was the dual preparation of Flat … Continue reading RCC Israel #22 – Av 5778

RCC Israel #21

June 13, 2018 / Avi Davidowitz / 1 Comment

This month Bracha cooked solo as Uri is off traveling with his lovely wife - and she did a wonderful job as usual. My favorite dish of the night was the corn gnocchi served on a puree of lamb bacon and greens topped with a sous vide egg - excellent stuff! My thanks to Andy … Continue reading RCC Israel #21

2014 Flam Noble Launch Event – 2018 Flam Releases

June 4, 2018June 5, 2018 / Avi Davidowitz / 3 Comments

This past Friday I attended the 2014 Flam Noble launch event at the winery. Sometimes they do this with a full dinner - other times it's wines and cheese to start  with the current Blanc and Rose and then a tasting of selected library wines with the pre-release Noble. This year was the latter - which … Continue reading 2014 Flam Noble Launch Event – 2018 Flam Releases

RCC Israel #20 – and on the lack of age-able whites

May 15, 2018May 15, 2018 / Avi Davidowitz / Leave a comment

And now we are out of the teens.... For RCC Israel #20 we decided to go dairy in honor of the upcoming Shavuot holiday. This is always a challenge as most wines that are age-able and RCC worthy are reds. That doesn't mean there aren't excellent choices for whites and Roses - there are and … Continue reading RCC Israel #20 – and on the lack of age-able whites

RCC Israel #19

April 25, 2018 / Avi Davidowitz / 4 Comments

This was a very interesting night with one of our best wine lists ever. We ended up with a very international list (minus any American entries)  - and each region showed beautifully. The food of course was excellent. Bracha and Uri continue to put out inventive and tasty dishes month after month. While Uri rarely … Continue reading RCC Israel #19

RCC Israel #18

March 20, 2018March 20, 2018 / Avi Davidowitz / Leave a comment

Atter a couple of months of moving around we returned to our normal meeting place at the Shuk Cook - Uri Zaltzman's apartment where he and Bracha Arnold prepared a truly excellent meal. Every single dish worked and was excellent - with a number of dishes going on my favorites list! From a wine perspective … Continue reading RCC Israel #18

RCC Israel #17

February 20, 2018February 20, 2018 / Avi Davidowitz / 4 Comments

Well here we are again. After last month's all Israeli RCC in honor of Tu Bishvat, this month the theme was VeNahafoch  - and so other than a bonus bottle that I wanted everyone to taste blind, the requirement this month was that the wines be anything other than Israeli. As our wonderful chefs were … Continue reading RCC Israel #17

2014 Tanya Alon Cabernet Sauvignon

February 11, 2018February 11, 2018 / Avi Davidowitz / 2 Comments

This wine puts me in an awkward position. I have promised to give my unfiltered opinion of the wine I taste - but this wine was brought over for lunch this past Shabbat by a friend and I know he tasted it before he bought it..... In fact, I am FULLY aware that this is … Continue reading 2014 Tanya Alon Cabernet Sauvignon
