Welcome to Food and Wine Wednesday!

A wonderful friend and I got together for lunch the other day at a place I had no idea served lunch. I had been there for some wine with another friend, but the food-thing somehow escaped me. Imagine that! 😀

Anyhoo, amongst the yummy offerings that day was this gem:

A golden beet salad with hazelnuts and Chevre. I loved the crunchiness of the hazelnuts mixed in with the perfect texture of the beets, the punchy flavor of the goat cheese, and the spicy arugula…Ohmigosh was it good! Almost as good as the conversation and reconnecting with a dear friend.

I’ll definitely head back. Maybe next time, I’ll have food and wine!

What food surprises have you encountered recently?

Happy eating,
