Trader Joe's Wine
- a
- Ali G Feb 20, 2005 09:24 PM
Just wondering if anyone can share their favorite wines sold at Trader Joes. They have some bargains that pretty decent if you are just looking for a glass with dinner. Looking for some recs.
Obvious answer: "Two-Buck Chuck" aka Charles Shaw. Reliable table wine for dirt cheap. They do most varietals, including the now verboten Merlot (damn you 'Sideways'!). News stories pop up now and again about blind taste/quality tests where Charles Shaw wins out over significantly higher-priced wines.
To keep this Boston-centered, they run $3/bottle here in Taxachusetts, and I believe the shipments arrive at area stores every Saturday. And, I don't think the Back Bay TJs carries it, but they don't carry much, so hey.
re: seekaltroutes
back bay TJ's doesn't have a iquor license....
re: seekaltroutes
I admit to happily drinking Chuck's sauvingion blanc, and really hating the merlot. I also like Red Truck very much and I've bought a bunch of the $7 prosecco. I've tried many others and don't remember any disappointments. TJ beer is also good at $5. Too bad for my local wine merchants.
re: steinpilz
Rex goliath is also a good red.
re: seekaltroutes
Seriously? It is not reliable; two-buck chuck is made from the leftovers of whatever come out that year. So, by definition, it can't be a reliable taste. Some years may be decent, some may be swill. I know that you can't really argue with a wine that's $3, but still...at least shell out like $7 for Red Truck, which is actually not bad.
Trader Joe's wine are great! We have tried several of their Australian wines, and they are always very good. The Banrock Station for reds is a good reliable choice, and so is the yellowtail for their whites. Try their ports as well. It is flavoursome and at a fantastic price! When I'm not sure what to get, the guys at Trader Joe's are often very helpful and gave lots of helpful tips. I go to the Cambridge Trader Joe's at Memorial Drive.
Winners I've picked up in Coolidge Corner (West Newton has no liquor license):
Dao vinho verde, <$10
Francis Coppola table wine, ~$15
Some good malbecs
I think the lesson is that if you compound the cheapness of wine from certain countries (South America, Portugal) with TJ prices you get a big bargain.
At the Coolidge Corner and Cambridge TJ's--
Nobilo Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc ($12?)
Ique Malbec
Coppola Black Label Claret ($15)
Abrazo Del Toro spanish varietal blend ($7, a real bargain)
Rabbit Ridge Zinfandel
Ravenswood Zinfandel
re: Steve
FerranDE Sauvignon Blanc
re: galleygirl
or maybe Ferrari-Carrano? :)
re: nomadfromcincy
Naw, it's just my favorite of their cheap whites, so the label is engraved on my retinas...;)
I also like the Pearly Bay Sauv.Blanc, for $3.99 on cheap days, and for splurges, the King Shag SB out of New Zealand is a real bargain at $7.99
I overheard a gentleman trying to help another couple, recommending Nero d'Avola (Ruggiero di Tasso) an Italian red. I bought a bottle after trusting the recommendation of a stranger. He told me I wouldn't be disappointed. HE WAS RIGHT. The wine is fabulous and at $5 you feel like it shouldn't be. Gave this away at Christmas to many happy friends (feeling very cheap in the process!).
Another recommendation is the Giesen Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand. Very delicious and $8 less than my local wine shop favorite.
re: 4chowpups
i definitely have to second 4chowpups here. i've been drinking the nero d'avola (sicilian red) for the past year and love it for its smooth fruity flavor and 5 dollar price point.
from the back label: 100% nero d'avola grapes, produced in southwestern sicily, "lot's of berry character with soft tannis and a lightly jammy finish. pair with red sauced dishes and grilled meats."
a TJ worker helped me pick out this wine; it was labeled a TJ staffs' favorite. workers there have always led me in the right direction and seem to know what's up with the wines. don't be afraid to ask for recommendations.
re: 4chowpups
I am a huge fan of the Giesen SB, but have never seen it at TJ's. In the bay area I can get it at Bev&More, or Cost Plus for around ten bucks, which TJ's have it? Thanks.
re: winedude
I second the Geisen - saw it at the TJ's on memorial Drive last week - a great, crisp sauv blanc!
re: winedude
In regards to the Chardonnay response, I realize that it's not so cool to love it right now, but it certainly serves a time and place (and food). I love other whites, but in most cases still keep going back to a nice Chardonnay. Bad to make generalizations.
However, I haven't found any that I was crazy about at TJs.
But for reds, you can't go wrong with the EXP Syrah for $10!
How is it that Trader Joe's can offer such inexpensive prices on wines? I just love going there, looking around, and trying new wines. They offer some wonderful bargains and I've gotten some very good bottles of wine that sure taste like they should be more expensive than they are!
re: BackBayGirl
TJ can offer such prices because their bulk quantity is enormous. Every one of the bottles mentioned on here will make a medium sized vineyard rich just supplying them. And although I have no bones about the cheap and cheerful beverages they call wine here (i've drunk quite a few bottles myself); they are a different animal than the wine that is chirped about when you pay - say over $25 retail.
re: chloe.speaks
Actually, vineyards and wineries control the prices of their wines by only producing a certain number of bottles per vintage. But, sometimes they have leftover wine after that, so rather than throw that wine away, they bottle it with a different label, a Trader Joe's label, and sell it for significantly less. So you can spend $10 on a bottle of TJ's wine that would normally coast $80. That's better than a $25 bottle elsewhere.
re: knyjihll
1) That's why I follow this board and similar ones for tips on these bargains. The problem is that the wineries don't exactly broadcast it when they sell off that wine.
2) TJs sometimes also buys 'end lots' and moves them quickly enough that the winery doesn't worry too much about tarnishing their image. Costco used to be that way for apparel companies before they got so big. Last year I found a Sauv Blanc, from Anderson Valley, at my local TJs for $5.99, that I know was selling for $18 at a couple of local wine shops.
It really helps to find trustworthy sources of info, especially regarding second labels. TJ's recently had a Zin blend called Tribunal that was supposedly made by the same winemaker who made The Prisoner at 3 to 4 times the price. The wine tastes like much more than the $9.99 it sold for but whether or not it's really the same juice I don't know. Through this board I was able to track down a case at a store 50 miles from home and have a friend pick it up.
re: Midlife
Hm-m, did not know that Orin Swift had a second label. Thanks for the tip on that. His Prisoner and also Papillon are very good, if one likes the bigger styles of Zin, and blends.
villa borghetti valpolicella - just under $6.
i get it from the TJ's on memorial drive in cambridge. it has become our everyday red, but still good enough as a last minute offering for when we're unexpectantly invited to a friend's house for dinner.
The benefits of one stop shopping are not lost on me. However, at the price range laid out in the thread above you could shop at almost any good wine shop and get a great bottle of interesting wine and get good wine service as well, from the buyer or manager or some one who has actually tasted the wine and knows a thing or two about pairing. I wouldn't trade service and education for 2-buck chuck.
re: wleatherette
I'm with you. The cost of an empty bottle, a label, a cork, somebody to put it all together and then fill it with wine, somebody to drive it from California.......how much money is left in that wholesale total for wine? Not much. This is an agricultural product people, not a coke.
re: wleatherette
i'm with you too. i've always thought of the 2 buck chuck (or 3 buck here in MA) as really bad. i've used the sauvignon blanc for cooking which was fine, but on it's own it's just not good. it would have been good when i was in college (considering i used to drink boon's at the same price) or if i had never tasted a good wine in my life. i'm sorry if i sound snobbish, but for me 2 buck chuck is on the same level as grocery store tomatoes in the middle of winter.
re: wleatherette
2 buck chuck is JUNK. I bought one of each to try (figuring some varietals might be passable... but had to pour all of it down the drain. Really undrinkable. It always amazes me to see people buying up this stuff by the caseload. TJ's does have great prices on other drinkable wines that are quite reasonable. The VILLA BORGHETTI VALPOLICELLA is a soft, drinkable wine. They have quite a few inexpensive Pinot Grigio's for btw $6-$8. For 11.99, I like the Edna Valley Chardonnay. No reason to waste $3 (in MA) when you can get many drinkable wines for a few bucks more.
re: WineTravel
the villa borghetti valpolicella has been my everyday red since i discovered it almost a year ago. and at just under $6 it's a great value...
re: wleatherette
Definitely Not! I had to spit it out after being forced to try it.
re: wleatherette
No, you really, really aren't the only one...I will literally never understand the appeal.
re: wleatherette
Let me just say that NO ONE I know personally -- with the singular exceptions of a) my father-in-law*, and b) Fred Franzia (and let's face it, what would you expect him to say?) -- likes, enjoys, purchases and/or consumes Chrles Shaw, aka 2BC.
* And even he has lost his interest in it.
re: zin1953
ROTFLMAO, Jason. Do we have the same Italian FIL?
And yes, mine has come over from the dark side after plying him with expensive (ie wines over $8) stuff, and now just enjoys throwing TBC out there for a few yuks.
2BC is miles ahead of the ghastly pruney crap that was most low-end California wine not so very long ago, and which is still available at supermarkets all over California. I like the sauvignon blanc, because it's the sort of clean-but-soft white I want on a hot evening, and the cab is OK with supper. Would not touch the merlot with a bargepole, and the shiraz is just too...much.
Here in SoCal, my TJ faves at the under-$6 level are the aforementioned Nero d'Avola, a suave French blend called l'Authentique, TJ's own French-sourced cab and the d'Aquino reds, all of them. The La Ferme Julien red, white and rosé are very pleasant, and lately they've had a Frascati whose label I don't remember, but it's in a frosted bottle and runs $5.99 and it's OK if not the best I've had.
TJ is great source for everyday drinking wines and especially stocking up for a party. That said, I don't usually wind up being very excited by these wines, but definitely happy with extremely low cost yet drinkable-without-cringing. The VdP de Vaucluse Merlot-Carignan is nice.
The exception to this rule (meaning I am quite excited by this wine) is the Espiral Vinho Verde--a delicious, classic VV, fizzy, dry, refreshing, perfect for summer, and only $3.99 in NYC.
re: kenito799
Agree completely.. Love the Vinho Verde at $3.99, but my TJ here in the Chicago area runs out of it often. I think you either love or hate this wine tho, my husband and many of my friends don't like it at all---o.k by me , since it just means it's all mine!
re: jackie de
I like the Vinho Verde a lot too - and it does seem like the Chicago TJs run out of it all the time!
two buck chuck Always has given me a headache and often a migraine. I was questioned as to whehter it was in my head-yes odd choice of words, but it has happened at parties where did not see it poured. now i always make sure I know what I am drinking and if chuck is the only think on menu, go without. If it works for you personally I say fine, but you should not serve it to friends that are sensetive to headaches. I do not care for TJ Califorina or Autralians or "market labal" wines (these are too inconsistant). the Italians esp the Pinot Grigios and French esp Bordeaux (sp) are usually good. You may also like the Belgian Frambiose is they have it. It is actually a beer, but amazing. TJ's price if very good on them, esp if you get the large bottle.
re: kenito799
The TJ in Manhattan sells beer. Its in the back left of the store.
Just wanted to say thanks to the folks who resurrected this thread. I picked up a few of the wines reccomended here - the Vinho Verde and the Villa Borghetti - and liked them a lot. The gentleman working at the store also recommended a 2004 Dr. Beckermann Reisling which was very good for just $4.50.
I hope folks will keep posting on this thread!
TJ's is great for wines on the cheap-er
but you should also check out Costco, espec. around the holidays for great deals as well.
I've found some great buys at Trader Joe's over the years, but as a general rule, I've found that the cheap stuff's not good, and the good stuff's not cheap.
re: jho3802
it's definitely drinkable, far better than TBC, cheap enough so that if we don't go through the bottle and end up throwing half out, i don't feel bad.
One of my favorites buys is Trader Joe's own brand of sake, a junmai ginjo, for only $10. For a sake of that quality, $10 is very cheap. And it is a smooth, easy drinking sake. An excellent value.
I saw beer today in the grocery part of 14th St TJs -- far back left corner, next to the tasting stand
I'd love to see this thread keep getting updated!
I can't stand TwoBuck, or their house label Pinot Noir.
But was very happy with that fizzy vinho verde this summer, AND I just came home with the Nero D'Avola. whoppee. I really like that grape...can't wait to open the bottle and see if this is anywhere near my regular favorite Nero D'Avola that Astor in NYC has run out of...
If the l'Authentique referenced above is the Corbiere's blend with the owl on it ($14 in NYC) it's nice enough. I think that's Cuvee Mythique, come to think of it
On the Ravenswood Zin - the vintage makes a huge difference. I think it was the 2002 that was a great staple -- then the 2003 tasted like cloves to me. phooey.
That could be 2003 - 2004, I forgot to write it down after I scoured our local places for the year I liked!
The Ravenswood Lodi in the store right now is no great shakes either.
you're welcome
good in the beer?
Ommeghang (bet I'm not quite spelling that right...)
Brooklyn Brewery (weisse was 8.99/6pak)
good stuff, but not so hard to find elsewhere either
we tried a couple of their TJ brand beers - just okay
Considering their Barbaresco & Bourgogne Blanc are at least $35 less per bottle than I can buy either elsewhere, they're quite nice. Sorry - threw out bottles - can't remember vintners.
Hi Ali G.
I know that wine preferences are a matter of taste but I am not wild about the "two buck Chuck" wines..none of them. I decided to start by buying the cheapest red wine on their shelves that I could find and work my way up from there. (in my area it retails for $3.49 and it has miraculously become my favorite. I tested it on my friends and they thought that it was at least a $10-$15 bottle of wine! It is called IL VALORE Sangiovese 2005 from Italy. The bottle label has a "burnt tomato" color with a nondescript abstract 1 1/2 inch square picture on the front center. It is wonderful with italian food and actually not a bad sipper on its own either. I hope that this helps! If nothing else, you will only waste a few bucks experimenting. What more can you ask for?!

re: karenlayer
Check the verse on this page ... it's whole mission is TJ's wine deals:
That search is for 10 bucks or less .. if you're a high roller you can change that.
I know this thread is dead but it is my favorite topic...That said, here are my Top 10 for February:
1. 2005 Epicuro Aglianico - $5
2. 2006 Concha y Toro Casillero del Diablo Carmenere - $7
3. 2005 Rocking Horse Napa Valley Zinfandel - $8
4. 2006 Geyser Peak California Sauvignon Blanc - $8
5. 2003 Columbia Crest Two Vines Merlot - $6
6. 2005 Kono Sauvignon Blanc - $8
7. 2004 Chasing Clouds Central Ranges Shiraz - $3
8. 2006 Aquila d'Oro Toscana - $4
9. 2006 Castle Rock Monterrey County Pinot Noir - $10
10. 2005 Archero Nero d' Avola Ruggero di Tasso - $4
Let me know what you think.
Hope you enjoy!
In the South America section, get a Malbec. Especially the Paniloco. Also Black Mountain makes a mean Malbec. Both of these are only 5 or 6 bucks and are just a party in your mouth.
re: PAUL POSOLI
Is there a reason why you're shouting?
But to answer your question, no. Aging potential depends upon the specific wine, not upon its price tag.
Is anyone else enjoying the relatively new Barrio Boca (I think that is what it is) wines - there is a Malbec, a Cabernet, and a Merlot. The Malbec is particularly decent for an everyday wine, in my opinion, and it is only $3.99.
Trader Joe's Grand Reserve Santa Lucia Highlands Pinot Noir was a nice little find. Not cheap by TJ's standards - $12.99 - but good flavors and profile. New world but with some old world funkiness.
Do NOT, I repeat, DO NOT listen when people tell you to get 2 buck chuck. Yuck. Do, however shop for wine at TJ's because they have some great stuff. Two of my favorite grat buy standbys are:
Kim Crawford's Sauvignon Blanc (get the latest vintage of this one, which is now the 2008). It's in the New Zealand section, should be about $14 bucks.
Concha Y Toro's Casillero Del Diablo Carmenere
(should be about 7.99, has an orange label on the top).
re: henmonster
I *really* dig the 07 Perrin Reserve Cotes du Rhone, found last week at TJ for $6.99. I enjoyed it thoroughly, and would have no problem breaking out more bottles for a nice dinner get-together. (twist-off cap too; yeah you go, Frenchies!)
re: havham
I have an update! I haven't read all of the previous posts so if this is a repeat, I'm sorry about that. I am in Chicago and they have a very good cheap red called Blue Fin. The label is nothing fancy. It is dark blue and has a cheap appearance, but the Pinot Noir goes with just about any food I've paired it with and the Petite Shiraz is not a bad sipper either. It is a real people pleaser as well! I've turned all of my friends on to it and even though they know it's a cheap one, ($3.99 a bottle) they are happy when I bring it along. Hope that helps!
re: karenlayer
Blue Fin Pinot Noir appeared briefly over a year ago, and sold out in a hurry. Don't know if that prompted them to do a bigger buy this year or what, but it's holding up on the shelves pretty well. Just $3.99 here in California, and really quite nice.
Of course, what do I know? I like 2BC cabernet just fine ... though I think the merlot is ghastly.
re: Will Owen
if you are in the market for a $2 wine that is actually drinkable (not good, but drinkable), keep an eye out at Whole Foods for their "Three Wiishes" wine. they don't carry it all the time, but when they do have it, it is the best in the "least costly wine imaginable" category.
re: westsidegal
Whole Foods raised the price of this wine to $3.60/bottle.
re: havham
last night tasted 2 buck chuck cabernet again.
even after giving it almost an hour to breathe, it was completely undrinkable.
down the drain it went.
i guess it was ok for cooking as the other guests did consume the stew that the hostess made using it.
my update is to avoid this plonk at all costs.
even the 21 year old at the party, who normally will happily drink anything containing alcohol threw out his glass of the the stuff.
re: westsidegal
Hopefully, you weren't surprised . . .
re: zin1953
i wasn't surprised, but since the hostess was serving it, out of politeness i took it to the loo with me and disposed of it down the sink out of sight of the hostess and the other guests.
re: westsidegal
Yes, I consider it a personal victory every time I can steer someone away from the TBC.
The Villas Chilenas $2.99 Sauvignon Blanc was decent for the price point last time we tried it and I'm thinking the Cab, Merlot, and Chard might be OK as well.
When anyone asks me about Mr. Chuck I tell them "I wouldn't drink it".
Bad Box Wine In a Bottle = Bleck! Drink what you like and if you like TBC, you can have mine.
re: BigWoodenSpoon
Availability Alert! Super limited quantities.
2009 TJ's Petit Reserve Paso Robles Albarino ($5.99) is pretty darn tasty for the price point. Lots of pear with citrus and I liked the acidity and finish.
re: BigWoodenSpoon
The Albarino was in the Toluca Lake store yesterday. Ankle-level shelf. Paired with some good sashimi it was a bit fruit-forward. Better in its own, I think.
re: havham
Probably the best that one can do would be to stop by THEIR TJ's and pick up a mixed case, or two. Taste quickly, and then head back for X btls. of the ones that they liked.
Different TJ's will have different offerings. In PHX, we usually have different wines, than just over the border in SoCal. One never knows.
Good luck,
re: Bill Hunt
the problem with that strategy, as i've found out through painful personal experience, is that you can end up spending tons of money before finding a good bottle. there's a lot of plonk being sold there, especially at the lower prices.
i've had much better luck at TJ's following the recommendations made on this board than i have in following the recommendations made by the crews that work at the local stores. (i live very near 6 different TJ stores)
re: westsidegal
I could not agree more. Wife just picked up a mixed case from a local TJ's (Phoenix), and we were not impressed. All were whites, and rather across the TJ price-point range. So far, nothing is working, per this thread: http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/793766
Will some others reward us? Only time will tell, but so far - NO!
re: Bill Hunt
So sorry to hear about your negative experiences and I wish I could scout out your local store(s) to see what's available compared to my store. Here in the Bay Area we have a number of stores that have Wine Teams or at least one Geek that gets a chance to sample things occasionally and make notes. If you tell me your preferred stores, I'll make inquiries if you like.
Yes, unfortunately IMO we sell a LOT of plonk especially at the lower price points.
However, we do get hidden gems every now and then that make the search worthwhile. More interesting reds than whites of late, although we recently got a Roussane from Lake County I'm interested in checking out.
re: BigWoodenSpoon
BigWoodenSpoon, you, personally, are the most reliable source of info on TJ's wines.
the strategy that works best for me is to wait for you to make a recommendation on this board, print it out, and THEN phone or go to my local stores to see if they carry the stuff. Sometimes they have it and sometimes they don't, but as long as I don't stray from your recommendations everything works out well.
you are my preferred wine geek, BigWoodenSpoon.
re: westsidegal
Why thank you westsidegal, it's nice to be appreciated. : )
I will continue to poke at the new Captain (yes, another one) and try to get a Tasting scheduled within the next several weeks as soon as Reviews & Inventory are done.
I'm heading to OR & WA wine country in August and I'll report back if I fine anything spectacular. Hope everyone had a great 4th!
re: BigWoodenSpoon
Now, I have had a few "hits," but more "misses." Not sure where the AZ TJ's fall into the scheme of things, but would assume that we are rather down the list.
We seldom "go shopping" for wines there, but then, when we find a few, that we know, do not hesitate to pick them up.
Then, it is all about personal tastes. What one loves, another might not, regardless of price. It's all about the wine, and those personal tastes.
Thanks for your gracious offer, but I feel that you would not recognize much here, plus it's too hot here to leave SF... [Grin]
PS - we now are in the Bay Area once per month, and from June through Sept., we flat love it!!!!! In other months, it's really good too.
re: Bill Hunt
For approximately 30+ years, I've been telling people who want to buy wine at TJ's to go as soon as the Fearless Flyer comes out -- buy 12 different bottles, be sure to have a corkscrew and glass(es) in the car. Taste all 12, and then go back in and buy more of the one or two you liked . . . .
Haven't seen much to change that advice.
re: zin1953
So.................. wait. You're suggesting we spend $60-$100++ in hopes of finding one or two wines worth spending ANOTHER $60-$100++ each on??
I understand the premise (though maybe on a smaller scale) but the math isn't making sense to me. Didn't we just double the cost of this "bargain" wine (if we find only one)? There's only so much pasta sauce or sangria I can make with the losers. And.............. the winners had better be REAL winners.
re: Midlife
Keep in mind that I've been saying that for over THIRTY years . . . and back then, virtually ALL the wines TJ's carried back then were $1.99-$3.99, so a case was always <$50, and NEVER in the $60-100 range . . . considering that most people were spending $6-8, maybe $10, a bottle back then, the one or two that you discovered that were really good (and worth buying a case or two of) were bargains at that price . . .
I "came up" with that advice based upon what several of my customers told me they did when the Fearless Flyer arrived . . . THEY drove to TJ's with a corkscrew and glasses, tasted through a dozen wines in the parking lot, and then re-entered the store to buy 2-5 cases of what they liked -- splitting the cost among them. Considering 1) how "iffy" TJ's wines were back then, and 2) it cost each one of them $10-20 to discover the wines they liked, it has always seemed like a reasonable strategy to me . . . .
Now, I have loads of friends who shop at TJ's -- myself included -- but I don't know of anyone who buys wine there . . . certainly LOTS of people do, but none of my friends are among them. Food? Of course! Spirits? Sure. Beer? Yup. But wine? Nope.
Keep in mind, too, that this advice pre-dates the current German ownership of TJ's and goes back to the original founder, Joe Coulombe. I guess, since the Albrecht family has owned TJ's since 1979, I actually started giving out this advice in the late-1960s and throughout the 1970s and 1980s -- so it's been a lot more than just 30 years ago. (Time flies when you're having fun.)
Under the Albrecht family, TJ's expanded its wine selection to include wines which -- aside from Champagne -- was almost exclusively comprised of private- and control-labels, coupled with close-outs. Now, they have added a selection of (for lack of a better term) "regular" wines, too. Still, no one I know gets their wines there -- despite the thousands and thousands of cases TJ's sells every year . . .
re: zin1953
If you don't like a wine (or anything else you buy at TJ's), you can return the remainder for your money back.
re: Robert Lauriston
(All legalities aside . . . )
re: zin1953
your post made me think of the yogi berra quote:
"nobody goes there anymore; it's too crowded"
re: westsidegal
One can always count on the wisdom of Yogi . . . .
re: Midlife
Not to be confused with OUR Jason, try this site:
I used to get a quasi weekly email, but not sure if he still does the list. Like our Jason says about the Fearless Flyer, when the blog appears you need to make a call(s) to see if your local place has what you're interested in and have them hold it or go get it very soon.
I've used this over the past several years for picking up large quantities for weddings and such, or just daily quaffers for the home racks. Good bulk deals I recall were the Now & Zen white and Rabbit Ridge Allure de Robles, a couple of years of the Chariot (07, iirc) and the 08 Tribunal, a great one from Dave Phinney of Orrin Swift. The 07 Picket Fence RR Pinot Noir @$10 is getting a log of attention at the moment.
My advice, read the other Jason's blog first, then apply OUR Jason's strategy... best of both worlds, IMNSHO.
re: PolarBear
Thanks for the link. I'm very familiar with the site.
I was able to score a case of Tribunal a couple months ago, after enlisting the help of westsidegal (here on Chow) in locating some inventory. It was worth every penny of the price and probably twice as much or more.
I've enjoyed Chariot too. Never tried Now & Zen, but it would take some heavy duty recs to get me to try Rabbit Ridge again after some really bad experiences when they were still up in Sonoma.
I've done zin1953's parking lot tasting a few times over the years, at TJ's and also at Total Wine. I always feel like I should be crouching down in my back seat though.
re: Midlife
i was actually stupid enough to do just that twice.
now i know better---just wait for BigWoodenSpoon to tell us what to buy.
re: foodwinebooks
Yes . . . MANY stores have private and control labels . . . TJ's isn't alone in that. BevMo, K&L, -- a number of stores do.
re: zin1953
I've never found TJ's private-label wines very good values.
If K&L does private labels I haven't seen one. They do direct imports, some of which are among the best values around, especially on closeout.
re: Robert Lauriston
my experience with TJ's private labels is that 90% of the time they have not been good values at all.
re: Robert Lauriston
K&L has a number of control labels. I do not know if they *currently* have any private labels, but they have done so in the past.
I agree that TJ's private- and control-labels aren't that good in the QPR Dept.
re: zin1953
Isn't Kalinda K&L's house label??

Sheila Shanley - 11/10/2014
Had the good fortune of letting Vikki herself teach this dance to my class. They loved the music and enjoyed the dance so much it was danced 3 times during the evening. Would certainly recommend and deserves to do well.
Corn Don't Grow
Betty Drummond - 11/10/2014
We're loving this dance. Taught it at three classes and it's a floor filler every time I play it. Well done and more of the same please
Anna Stewart - 10/10/2014
Great little dance from Willie Brown and Heather Barton. There's a few dances out to the this track by The Vamps, but this was the version that clicked with me. Class loved it and everyone belted out "Oh Cecilia your breaking my heart". Simply great.
Don't Close Your Eyes
Valerie Curnock - 10/10/2014
A superb nightclub to an old style country track, which is a lot faster than you would first think because of the timing. Very turny joining the end to the beginning but this can be easily modified. Love it. Hope its a hit for you Kim.
Christine Wallace - 10/10/2014
Treble (Trebel in Linedancer) has been written to a fantastic track which makes you want to dance. Section A is funky fun. It is followed by B which is a classic Cha. A fun dance which most dancers can enjoy. Nothing too difficult. Highly recommended
Every Breath You Take
Detty Ellis - 10/10/2014
Just been taught this dance in class this morning.........What a pleasure to dance.....and.......love the music ( nearly ) as much as the original !!!!!!!;)
When Love Runs Out
P Davies - 10/10/2014
Aother excellent dance from A&P with well thoughtout choreography to the popular track Love Runs Out. The heel toe section needed an exta bit of practice but all the class danced it OK. Everyone danced it again at the end of the class. Love it.
Woman Trouble
Denise Nicholls - 10/10/2014

Denise Nicholls - 10/10/2014
This is a lovely dance, not half as bad as the step sheet looks, the dance itself was no problem, just a few timing issues with section 3. taken the full turns out for non turners, fills the floor each time

Minster's Corner: Renewed Minds
Renewed Minds
Romans 12:1-2
Whenever Paul uses the word "therefore" in his letters, he is making a transition. Prior to this passage, he has spent several chapters laying the groundwork for what he is about to say. He has bemoaned the fact that his people, the Jews, have not accepted Jesus as the Christ—the Messiah. He has been adamant, though, in insisting that the covenant will not be broken, that the Jewish people will eventually accept Jesus and be grafted back into the tree of God's salvation. Meanwhile, those Gentiles who have become Christians should not feel vain and proud. God has allowed them to become part of the "family," to be grafted into God's tree. But they can just as easily be removed. It is up to each Christian, Gentile or Jew, to keep the faith—to grow in faith.
Then comes the transition. "I appeal to you therefore, brothers and sisters, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship (or "reasonable service")." God does not expect us to offer dead animals as sacrifices, but to give our living selves in worship and service.

ALBANY, N.Y. – The countdown to high school football is down to just two days, and for most of the Class B teams, there's no room for error.
Albany Academy is one of the teams kicking off with a divisional game on Friday. The Cadets' Week One test will be against Ravena.
Academy is coming off a disappointing 3-5 season where they just missed the playoffs despite averaging more than 30 points per game. Their defense also gave up 30 or more points in five of their eight games.
Head coach Tony Fruscio expects that side of the ball to be much improved with seven returning starters. It's the offense, with a sophomore starting quarterback that might be suspect.
"Yeah, I mean that's the big question," senior Jimmy Diorio said. "He is young, but I also think he has a lot of talent. I think, I think he'll be good."
"He's very experienced despite his youth," senior William Pausley said. "He's been around this team for a while. He's got a lot of work in on the offseason. He expects to have a very good year, and I think we all expect to have a very good year with him."
"I think we have enough skill players that we'll be fine. We'll be able to look at the carries and passing game and mix it in, so we still have a productive offense."

Smells strong, kills em dead, helps stop the itch.
Posted by Unknown on 22nd Apr 2014
The Chigarid is sort of like clear nail polish, it covers the bites and seems to stop the itch for awhile. I have used it several times but the bumps and itch are not gone completely. Some help, however.
Posted by Ray Fountain on 18th Mar 2014
I've tried many liquid and creme skin medications to apply on chiggers, but Chigarid is the best one by far. I think it smothers the imbedded chiggers plus provides analgesic relief.

Hey yall,
I have been researching and studying the guides here on tankspot and elsewhere for a few months now, trying to better my Frost Tank, and I have come to a brickwall of confusion! My main is a hunter, so DPS has always been my thing, but I really LOVE tanking with my DK and just cant seem to get over the slump I have hit.
Ok, first of all... when running most 5 man (and a few 10 man weekly bosses) with guildies, I have almost no issues... but it's my guild! WE know how to work together... it's LK randoms where I am totally starting to fail! If there is any melee dps in the group with over 5600 gs I cant keep aggro off them! Single target aint so bad, dark command is my friend! but mobs get really tough.
I am working hard to upgrade gear, just not having luck with drops. I have read that 2 slower dps weps are better, and I have read the opposite! If I need dps weps, is it worth it to take a step back gearwise from what I have now as acquiring 2 nicer dps weps will be hard work (the ones i need are in hHoR i believe, which I avoid like the plague!)?
I use a program called RAWR which tells me for threat I should be wearing a DPS helm? That can't be right can it?? (confusing) And WHAT is the best chant for a helm anyway? Should I not be gemming for all stam yet at my level (5092 gs)
I know it isnt my rotation/use of tools... I LOVE everything the DK has up it's sleeve! And I aint afraid to use it! I do flipflop between the single/double disease method, havent decided which is best for me yet. I CAN tank hHoR and as long as the healer is good I can pull it off, just hate that place.
A friend of mine who has a druid and a pally tank (both are pretty awesome) tells me I should be sneaking Agilitiy into my stats for threat, now he doesnt have a DK tank so i'm not so sure about that one. Any thoughts on that??
I have also read about Morbidity in another forum post here, that this would be helpful for aggro... but I dont know if that was in reference to FROST tank... and if it is a good idea, where do I sacrifice points to get it??
I am sorry if this is a lot of questions, but I have tried to figure out as much on my own as I could before invading the forums here, I am just out of ideas and hoping someone can help!
Thank you in advance....

Surgeon cleared on charge of growing marijuana
Published: January 11,2012
Tags: courts, doctors, drugs, health, healthcare, marijuana, medicine, physicians, surgeons
JACKSON COUNTY — Prosecutors have dropped all charges against former heart surgeon, who in 2009 was accused of growing marijuana on his 50-acre property in Jackson County.
District Attorney Tony Lawrence said in a statement yesterday that Circuit Robert Krebs signed the order to dismiss Monday.
David Bruce Allen was charged in February 2009 after a raid on his north Escatawpa property, where Jackson County Narcotics Task Force officers said they found a "grow room," marijuana, marijuana seeds and hashish.
Allen went on trial in February accused of drug offenses and witness-tampering. Krebs declared a mistrial after jurors reported being deadlocked.
Lawrence said the first jury's inability to reach a verdict at Allen's trial "casts doubt on the sufficiency of the evidence in light of the fact that there is no new evidence at a re-trial of this matter."
"The state of Mississippi has reviewed the transcript of the Feb. 7, 2011, trial and does not feel there would be evidence beyond a reasonable doubt to convict … (Allen) …in light of the fact that there was no actual grown marijuana found on the property and no new evidence exists which could be offered at a subsequent trial. Further, the alleged transfer of a controlled substance was not done in the presence of law enforcement but was based solely on the testimony of a lay witness," Lawrence said.
Allen's attorney, Michael Crosby, said yesterday he learned of the decision after he called to check on a hearing in the case, which had been set for Friday.
"This has been a long ordeal but we have a very just conclusion. I am thankful that they were willing to look at the evidence and review the transcript and make the right decision instead of putting Jackson County through another expensive trial," Crosby said.
A judge signed an order in 2011 that allowed Allen to keep the 50 acres of land and other property seized in a marijuana investigation.
At that time, Allen, who left the Gulf Coast in 2008 to open a medical-marijuana practice in California, has been locked out of his property for nearly three years.
Allen's sister and brother-in-law were living on the property when it was raided. They were arrested on related charges, but the charges were dismissed after they agreed to testify for the state.
Allen retired as a heart surgeon in 2007 after working about 15 years at a clinic in Pascagoula.

Virginia freshmen basketball players London Perrantes and Devon Hall have now had a few weeks to adjust to life in the UVa program. Like many first year players, they say the biggest transition from high school basketball to UVa basketball has been learning the Pack-Line defense.
"It's a lot different from what I was taught," says Hall, who's from Virginia Beach and played at Cape Henry Collegiate. "That was the biggest adjustment honestly, and we're still getting adjusted. But I'll pick it up."
"Definitely the defense was a surprise, but we're getting used to it now," said Perrantes, a Los Angeles native who played at Crespi Carmelite. "This is the third week and I definitely think we're getting acquainted really well, a lot easier now definitely."
The only position where the Cavaliers don't have a returning starter is at the point, which is the position that Hall and Perrantes both play.
"They really have a natural feel for the game," head coach Tony Bennett says of his freshmen point guards. "I think they'll make the game easier for some of our other guys. There will be adjustments, certainly, as all freshman have, but we're excited to have them both."
Both first years are excited too, and hopeful they'll be able to contribute for the Cavaliers right away.
"I think I can do a little bit of it all," says Perrantes. "I'm an all-around player, and I think one of my attributes, like good attributes is to get everybody involved, and be able to run the team and be able to shoot at the same time."
"I like to lead, and basically make plays regardless of what position I am," says Hall. "Regardless of 1, 2, 3, just to make plays and lead, and regardless if it's offensive or defense."

A word from Nemea
Hercules defeated the Nemean lion and then probably enjoyed an excellent glass (or amphora) of Nemean wine. Nemea is a noted wine & food capitol of Pelopennese in southern Greece. Our food is influenced primarily by the flavors of the Pelopennese with accents from all of Greece. We boast an amazing wine list with many great wines from Greece, the Mediterranean and around the world. Come in and let our mixologists make you a craft cocktail or enjoy a well made classic martini as you enjoy the best Greek food in San Jose! We look forward to serving you.Continued

- Should have said something/ Wish they had askedOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 11/22/2014I really liked the place and the wine I selected. My husband liked his salmon but I ordered the butter squash risotto and even though I was excited to try it, it was honestly almost uneatable to me. I ate maybe 10% of the plate. Wish I had said something then but i didn't. Maybe if the waiter had asked " how's everything tasting?" but he didn't. Even when he took away my mostly full plate and I said I didn't want a box to take it home. Still he never asked... I never said anything even though I paid $20 for it :/ ( next time this happens I'll definitely say something). Not sure I'll come back.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2005VIPDined on 11/22/2014Food was very good. Recommend the lamb chops! The place is big and nicely decorated with large windows. Tables not too close together. Might get a bit noisy if filled. Was not busy the night we were there. Interesting wine and servers were very competent. Would definitely go back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- West64VIPDined on 11/15/2014The service was fantastic. Our waiter attended to every need and offered excellent suggestions. It's one of the reasons I keep going back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent Greek DiningCheerioDined on 11/15/2014My fiancée and I went here for date night. Our server was extremely attentive; my water glass never ran empty; and the food was excellent. We had grape leaves (my fiancée loves them, and though they usually aren't my thing I actually enjoyed the one I tried) and a delicious grilled flatbread appetizer of some sort (it was basically a mini pizza but not labelled as such on the menu). The tomatoes they served on everything were the best I've ever tasted. I often don't get quite enough to eat at fancier restaurants, even with a few appetizers, but this one was quite the exception. All of the dishes were amply sized; we weren't even quite able to finish our main course. I really enjoyed their scallops with risotto (don't remember what the menu called it exactly). I didn't try any of their wine, but my fiancée enjoyed the waiter's recommended white with her dish. Overall a gem of a restaurant in downtown San Jose.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Dinner with friendsMargelDined on 11/14/2014We went to Nemea with another couple for dinning. The food was excellent and the service outstanding. We had a really good time. The down side is that it is very noisy. On top of it, there was two musicians playing Greek Music (very well) but it just had more noise....I had hard time to hear my friend across the table! We went to Nemea a year before but on the bar side and it was way quiter! I will definitively go back for dinning but on the bar side!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- One of my favoritesJohnVIPDined on 11/9/2014Still one of the best restaurants in downtown SJ. Excellent service and food continue to be the norm here.Special Features:
- Nice for a special occasionZapatachDined on 11/8/2014Great service, nice ambiance, nice place for a special occasion, food is good but it could use some more flavor.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent Greek Food @ Bay AreaOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 11/4/2014I've always enjoyed dining at Nemea. Love the food and services. Wonderful taste of Greece from the appetizers to main course.Special Features:
- Great Grilled DelicaciesKathleenDined on 10/30/2014We love to go to nemea and eat the delicious grilled octopus and fish dishes. They are perfect for lunch or dinner. If possible, visit with friends, so you can share more treats. The bar has great cocktails and an interesting wine list.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Pleasant surpriselewwDined on 10/25/2014I liked everything about my dinner at Nemea - the bread, appetizers, wine, entree, and dessert - presented by very good server.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- anoneatsoutDined on 10/24/2014Don't go on a Friday night unless you want to listen to LOUD live music, and be unable to have any conversation unless the band takes a break...I definitely want to go back----food is great, and well-priced for the quality. Brussel sprouts were delicious and so were the lamb meatballs and the lamb tenderloin.Special Features:
- will come again ...charly2Dined on 10/23/2014and again; they are very good and service is great!Special Features:
- Nemea Review by Raj MadhavanRajMadhavanDined on 10/22/2014I dined at Nemea twice in the last two weeks. Excellent Greek food, good wine list, and outstanding service. Their pistachio ice cream and Greek coffee are worth going back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderful Date NightthemangothreeDined on 10/19/2014Had a rough week and wanted to take my girlfriend out for a nice dinner. Quickly found this restaurant in downtown San Jose and it was a perfect choice. The food was excellent and the waiter was wonderfully helpful. He recommended some dishes which we enjoyed. The scallop risotto dish was so yummy that I wish I could have more! Good ambiance and was a really wonderful night out.Special Features:
- Great food and serviceOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 10/17/2014Food and service was excellent. The waiter was very attentive. I had the lamb souvlaki... Very tasty. The only issue I had was the music from the Greek band (who was very good and appropriate for the restaurant) was a little loud for background music. But, other than that, we loved it!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good Downtown RestaurantOpenTable Diner Since 2005Dined on 10/16/2014We sampled some Greek wines, of which I am extremely ignorant. With the waiters useful help we picked several reds and whites (by the glass) that were very good. I like the way the restaurant gives 'conventional' entrees a Mediterranean/Greek flairSpecial Features:
- Best lamb chop in South Bay!LouiseVIPDined on 10/15/2014We had a really enjoyable dinner at Nemea. The service was excellent. The lamb chops were cooked to perfection. We loved the octopus appetizer, Mediterranean sea bass and Moussaka as well. Truly a gem in San Jose!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- food used to be goodOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 10/8/2014maybe we just were there on a bad night, but even the grilled octopus did not live up to past standards. They need to put the greek back in the greek food.
- High quality Greek dishesjohna2014Dined on 10/5/2014Three of us made a meal of the saganaki, tasting dips, and the small plate appetizers (lamb meatballs, tiger prawns, and octopus) paired with one of the Greek red wines (a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot). We also shared two desserts. That was plenty of food, and not too much anything. The saganaki was ordinary and served without much enthusiam. I'd skip it unless it's one of your favorites. The lamb meatballs were succulent, moist (not cooked through, which was perfect), and served on a bed of citrus marinated roasted red peppers and basil. Best dish we had. Grilled octopus was also very well prepared. The tiger prawns were tasty but not in the same category as the other two small plates. The dip assortment was also well-prepared.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Exairetikí̱ (Outstanding)TheDineOutDivaDined on 10/4/2014Over the weekend I celebrated my birthday at Nemea. Me and my guests thoroughly enjoyed ourselves...Dining PERFECTION! The hosting staff was friendly and our waiter's knowledge of the menu, cooking style, wines and desserts was extremely helpful to us new Nemeans. We started out with Horiatiki (Salad) followed by our main courses, the Ktenia (Scallops), Paidakia (Lamb Chops) and Solomos (Salmon). Then we ended the night by sharing dessert...Sokolatina, Baklavas and Galactoboureko. I highly recommend this restaurant for any occasion. Actually, before the evening ended we all decided to return with our significant others…We want to share the Nemea experience with them. BRAVO!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fresh Greek fare, flaming cheeseamheyVIPDined on 10/2/2014Having recently returned from Greece I was pleased to find authentic Greek cuisine. 6pm reservation was perfect for 8pm concert at SAP center. Greek wine flights were fun. As in Greece appetizers were generous and suitable for sharing. Spanakopita pastry was especially fresh and good. Brussel sprouts were cooked to perfection.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ExcellentStarz6809Dined on 10/1/2014Service was prompt and attentive. Entrees were served in generous portions. Delicious. Ambiance elegant and comfortable. Would definitely recommend to others.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Craving GreekOpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 9/23/2014This place satisfied my Greek craving. Saganaki was great and the fish selection is amazing. Price was a bit high for San Jose IMO.Special Features:
- Fancy, but not greathukilauDined on 9/22/2014My husband is Greek, so we had high hopes for this "high-end" Greek restaurant, but found the food average. A couple of the items on the online menu were not available and they were out of sparkling water the night we went. The octopus appetizer was fairly small and could have used some lemon. The shrimp saganaki only came with 4 shrimp that were unevenly cooked, some parts seemed undercooked. The dessert and the wines were very good. Some great Greek wine flights and an extensive list of bottles of Greek wines. The dessert with galaktoboureko and baklava with honey and ouzo ice cream were great. May be good to go for drinks and dessert. Service was excellent, but more of a production and did not feel like a really Greek-run restaurant.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- LucasGoodEatsDined on 9/20/2014We had a wonderful dining experience: the food, restaurant and service. Lucas gave us newbies good menu advice and rounded out a great meal with incredible desserts.Special Features:
- Very good food but loud2fromExtonDined on 9/19/2014My wife cooks a mean Greek dinner. This might not have been up to hers, but the food was very good. We split the lamb meatballs for an appetizer. She had the salmon for her entree, while I had moussaka. Both tasty. The best part was the dessert - a sweet, sticky baklava which we split and which was probably better than hers. (Sorry, Barb). As we ate, a trio played Greek music, wowing us with the theme from Zorba the Greek. We'd definitely come back.Special Features:
- Ask for the olive breadJuliaLGDined on 9/19/2014The olive bread is worth the visit alone. However you have to ask for it. Check it out!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great authentic Greek cuisineStaceyVIPDined on 9/19/2014I'm Greek and I cook a lot of Greek dishes handed down by my family. Nemea is one of only a handful of Greek restaurants that serves true Greek cuisine. Are there some nods to modern tastes? Yes, of course but the basics are all there and incredibly well prepared. We started with Spanikopeta which is usually served as a pie but in this case was served al la Tiropeta style (small triangles), crispy, piquant and wonderful. We also enjoyed the lamb keftedes (meatballs), the lamb chops and souvlaki. We finished with the Loukamades (Greek donuts), Baklava and Galaktaboureko (a semolina custard with filo). It was all delicious.Special Features:
- Lovely food and service at NemeaSummer77Dined on 9/18/2014We had a wonderful experience at Nemea. Fresh flavors, great seafood and a friendly hostess and super nice Greek waiter (Lucas) who gave great recommendations.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- High hopes, okay reality..NotEasilyPleasedVIPDined on 9/16/2014We went in with high hopes. We could really use an outstanding Mediterranean restaurant downtown. With a little work they might be able to pull it off. We'll try again once they've been open a while longer.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Pleasant surprisedabbas2099Dined on 9/13/2014I picked the restaurant in the blind not knowing what to expect as we (my girlfriend and I) were going the Improv after dinner. We both loved the food and the atmosphere. I have gone to many Greek restaurants in the area (Dio Deka, Evvia, Kokkari, Opa, Odium,...) and this restaurant ranked just as good, if not better than the rest of them. My GF has the salmon which I tried and was perfectly cooked. I had their beef souvlaki was cooked perfectly to my order of medium-rare. The beef was very tender and flavorful. We followed the meal with their chocolate cake dessert and Greek coffee which again were outstanding. Would love to go back and try their Horiatiki salad and the lamb chops.Special Features:
- NemeafeedyourfaceDined on 9/12/2014Food was excellent and came to the table quick. Staff was friendly and helpful. Every dish recommended was a hit. We shared 4 of the small plates and the pita sampler. Plenty of food for 2 and leftovers. Would definitely go back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OZLANDDined on 9/12/2014THE DECOR IS EXCELLENT. GREAT BAR WITH LOTS OF CHARACTER. THE SERVICE WAS TOP NOTCH. OUR WAITER WAS VERY HELPFUL. THE APPEITERS WERE WONDERFUL, BUT OUR MAIN COURSES WERE OKAY.
- Continues to be one of the bestJohnVIPDined on 9/6/2014This is my favorite downtown restaurant and definitely one of the best in the city. The food, service and atmosphere are exceptional, from the details like their homemade pita that melts in your mouth to the great selection of entrees. I've been coming since it opened and brought out of town guests who were very impressed as well. Thank you for opening this gem in SJ.Special Features:
- La PeligrosalapeligrosaVIPDined on 9/6/2014Great place for pre-opera or other show dinner. We ordered a trio of appetizers that were ample enough for pre-show nosh. Octopus, shrimp, zucchini fritters...yum! Accompanied by a Greek Viognier and Greek Savignion Blanc. In and out in no time...the service was great, too! Great valueSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- RonaldVIPDined on 9/6/2014We came here after watching Wicked a couple of blocks away. We were a group of 8 and they put us in this cool little room surrounded with wine bottles on shelves that was semi-separated from the rest of the dining room. It was a nice little spot and a great first impression. The food was great. The lamb chops were really good. The service was outstanding. I will be coming back when I'm in the area.Special Features:
- Bad serviceOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 9/5/2014We came here a couple of times before and the lamp chop was so good that my husband decided to come back again for that. The restaurant did not have mustard for the table but every time my husband asked for it, the servers always got it for him from the kitchen. Again this time my husband asked for mustard to eat with his lamp chops but our waiter replied right away that this restaurant did not have mustard at all, this is a Greek restaurant. The waiter did not make any effort to go ask the kitchen for it. The lamp was so dry this time so he called the waiter again to insist for the mustard then he got it this time and saying we got lucky to have it this time.??? This incident ruined our Friday dine out, we won't come back to Nemea again.
- Catching with friendsOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 8/30/2014Great food and wine list. Enjoyed everything we ordered. Great plates to share. Will come again!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Greek FoodpechluckVIPDined on 8/27/2014We visited here and tried a flight of Greek wines (they have a red or white flight) and were so intrigued by the small plates that we decided to make dinner just out of multiple orders of those rather than by ordering an entree (which are more substantial and 2 - 4 x as large but also pricewise more go close to the $30 range). At 2 small plates per person, we still felt quite full. The bread they serve is very good, particularly the olive bread!Special Features:
- Not inexpensiveGregoryb02Dined on 8/26/2014Not really a place for kids. Nice atmosphere, but leave the kids home. More expensive than Open Table led us to believe. Not to say it is 't worth it, but it was nicer and more expensive than I what I thought we were showing up to for a casual meal w/ family. FYI, There are losers hanging out in an area just 2 blocks away (by the rail) which the waiter encouraged us to avoid. For a good Gyro, go to Nick the Greek, just a 5 minute walk away, since Neama does NOT serve Gyro's.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Tribune Co., the biggest newspaper publisher in bankruptcy, may learn by early July whether it has won the first of two rulings it needs to leave bankruptcy this year, lawyers involved in the case said.
Should the judge overseeing the case approve the company's reorganization plan by early July, Tribune may be able to exit bankruptcy by August, or by the end of the year at the latest, depending on how long it takes the Federal Communications Commission to make a key second ruling, Chief Reorganization Officer Don Liebentritt said in an interview today.
"The FCC is the wild card," Liebentritt said.
Tribune finished the last major court hearing in its bankruptcy today in Wilmington, Delaware, asking U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Kevin Carey to approve a plan that would divide ownership of the television and newspaper company among its senior lenders, including JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM:US), and hedge funds Oaktree Capital Management LP and Angelo, Gordon & Co.
Should Carey approve that plan, the company would need to win approval from the FCC to transfer its television and radio licenses to the new owners before it can exit bankruptcy.
Carey said he would hold a status conference on his decision in early July, if necessary. Lawyers for the company and creditors said after the hearing today that means Carey may rule by then.
Second Attempt
Tribune, based in Chicago, is trying for the second time to win approval of a reorganization plan that settles legal claims against the senior lenders that funded the company's 2007 buyout, which critics said left the television and newspaper company insolvent.
Objectors include hedge fund Aurelius Capital Management and other holders of pre-buyout debt who are being repaid less than the senior lenders.
Once Tribune leaves bankruptcy, pre-buyout creditors, including a group of retirees, have said they will press lawsuits filed in New York against shareholders they say wrongly benefited from the buyout, which added more than $8 billion in debt to the company.
Tribune owes creditors about $13 billion. The company is now valued at more than $7 billion, Tribune said in court papers.
The company's 4.875 percent bonds that were due in 2010 rose 4.1 percent today to 32 cents on the dollar, according to Trace, the bond-price reporting system of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority.
The bankruptcy case is In re Tribune Co., 08-bk-13141, U.S. Bankruptcy Court, District of Delaware (Wilmington).

Suzuki have played around with the GSX1300R Hayabusa's styling without losing the original's looks and character, as a result the new Suzuki Hayabusa looks really sleek. Engine capacity had increased and so has power and torque. Handling hasn't been significantly improved, more a gentle step forward however the brakes are a miles better, and about time.
Watch the 2008 Suzuki Hayabusa compete in our road test against the Kawasaki ZZ-R1400 and the BMW K1200S
Watch the 2008 Suzuki Hayabusa compete against the Kawasaki ZZ-R1400 in our top speed test
See our first ride of the Suzuki Hayabusa at the Salzburgring in Austria
The Suzuki Hayabusa has possibly the most powerful production engine on the market, alongside the Kawasaki ZZ-R1400, Suzuki are quoting 194.bhp and 115ftlb of torque for the Hayabusa. The motorcycle isn't restricted in the lower gears its full power all the way to the 186mph speed limiter.
Not much has changed on the new Suzuki Hayabusa: same wheelbase, rake and trail. However the shock and front forks have been upgraded and the swing arm strengthened. Thankfully the Hayabusa's brakes are now radial and do an excellent of stopping the big girl, without any fade even on the track. As you expect from the Suzuki Hayabusa you can't fling it around but if you ride smoothly it's very rewarding and with a few tweaks makes a decent track motorcycle.
Fully adjustable suspension front and rear comes as standard on the new Hayabusa and like every new big Suzuki motorcycle there's a three-way power switch limiting power. It's not just a gimmick you really notice the difference between the power modes, making the Hayabusa less of an animal than before.
Cosmetically the Suzuki Hayabusa has been tweaked, especially the back end, and there's a noticeable difference in the quality of finish. I like the new look, the quality of finish is top shelf, paint is deep, much improved over the original Hayabusa. Being a Hayabusa reliability is unquestionable.
£9000 for arguably the fastest production motorcycle on the planet, that will be enough to see the new Suzuki Haybusa top the sales charts. Quality of finish has vastly improved; it looks sleeker, but still retains that essential Suzuki Hayabusa character. Find a Suzuki GSX1300R Hayabusa for sale.

4 years and 44,000 of ownership, this bike still amazes me how good this bike is, not many downsides have been through several front wheel bearings and reg rectifier failures.
so apart from petrol oil change and tyres. no real issues.
what other bike would i get , Busa Gen3 whenever that arrives, but for the meantime i'll keeep my Gen2

Great allrounder
Decided last year to treat myself to a Yellow LE 13' model. Brembo and ABS just finishes it off nicely along with Yoshi cans.
The ABS isn't too much in the way and its still my fav means of transport...I have more confidence to use its abilities than almost any other bike I've owned.
Much more practical than any sports bike.
I can't believe people are put off by the mad rep these developed 15 years ago and still think these are nuts...its got one of the most friendly throttles around and simply gives what you ask of it.
Roll on the Gen3....i live in hope.

35000 miles
david parkinson
I've now done 35000 miles from new and I've just done the 15th service including a new DID chain and sprocket kit and it feels like new again. The best tyres I've used are Avon ultra 2s apart from a few minor blemishes its in great shape.
28 July 2013
long term ownership
right ill start with the fact ive owned my hayabusa for four years and its been faultless.
I do all the servicing myself and always have from tyres to valve clearances.(it is easy to look after)
ive just upgraded the brakes to brembos and that really makes a massive difference.
I have HEL braided brake pipes back and front which offer a more responsive feel over the OEM ones. I do oil changes every 2000 miles and oil and oil filter every 4000 miles, the air filter is a K&N.
Spark plugs are done every 6000 miles and valves every 14500 miles, Ive now done 30000 miles and its still as tight as it was the day i picked it up. if you look after the chain and sprockets and they will look after you mine are still original and thats fantastic for this bike. I have very little service history for it but i dont intend on selling it(not yet at least). the new BMW and ZZR etc may be faster but once youve ridden this you wont be disappointed, ive done many trips to germany france and northern scotland and its very comfortable fully loaded with luggage that you wouldnt even now was there. also ive never have this problem with tyres lasting only 800 miles ive had 5/6000 miles from the rears. all in all a great bike.
23 September 2012
Newer isn't always better pt2
Following on from my 1st review of the Gen2 which didn't inspire me enough to buy one..I went for a ZZR1400...which as good as it is has proved not to have any of the character of a Busa. Yeah the ZZR is super fast but also hard work to enjoy on twisty A or B roads where its low rpm lack of grunt is its fall down and needs its suspension seriously tweaked for 2 up use.
Now in the process of buying an 08' Busa which I test rode for 2 days and couldn't have enjoyed myself more on 2 wheels...absence does indeed make the heart grow stronger.
Everything about the bike just ticks all my boxes straight from the box vs its rivals...cost me £2k to realise that.

An Awesome Bike..
Now, having owned and ridden everything from R1s, ZX10r, Fireblades, GSXR1000s etc I thought I would get something a bit more comfortable..I went for a 2008 Hayabusa.
I was expecting it to be fast and it certainly is. What surprised me was the ease at which it goes extremely fast.. a 1k sports bike needs to be worked to a certain extent to get a serious pace on, however the Busa goes from any revs, any gear like a sports bike does towards the top end. This makes for very swift progress but Ive found you tend to be going a lot quicker at any given situation on the Busa.. rolling out of 60mph bends in 6th, wind it on and it whips upto 120mph in the time its taken to knock a race rep down 3 gears.. this is both has its advantages and disadvantages..it never feels like you are working it or pushing it but still acheiving licence losing speeds in total composure. I have found that to ge the same buzz as a race rep you need to be achieving 30mph more than a sports bike..Not a bike for those with little sef restraint.
Its a fantastic bike for euro voyages, a recent trip to Innsbruck was dealt with painlessly and nothing can live with it on the german autobahns and there are many E63 AMGs, M5s, Porsches that have a go!
Handling and braking are spot on for the road and you can pretty much ride it like a race rep, a BSB rider might be faster on a superbike but to an average intermediate track day rider on the road its everything you could want, its only on the track it feels a bit heavy in the slower corners.
Its really comfy for my 6'3 frame, returns nearly 50mpg at 100mph on the motorway and is a doddle to pootle around on..
You really wont go far wrong with a gen 2 Busa for all round road use.
A near perfect bike for those with any self restraint. Highly recommended

Hypa bikes?
I had a rolling drag race with a 57 plate Busa a few days ago on my old GSXR600K4. I kept up with him from 40MPH to 145MPH so I'm not looking at buying one now as I can design 599cc bikes to nearly go as fast. A waste of money for me.
I'm now looking forward to building a 570cc 2 stroke RG500/RGV250 and a lighter and faster GSXR1000K6 version of my K4.
Cheaper than the mighty Busa and more agile too

I've had this monster for a little over a year now and it handles alot better than you'd expect this beast to! I replaced the exhaust for Two Brothers carbon cans and it just sounds like a sick throaty Kawi Killer! As for looks I have not gone 1 day without getting compliments on her looks. I LOVE HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2009 Hayabusa
Have had this bike almost a year now, overall very pleased but I find the riding position cramped.
I have ordered Blueflame cans to replace the ugly original exhausts.
The service intervals and cost of what is a glorified oil change are both ludicrous, why can my car go four times longer between servces and then cost about the same as one bike service?

Suzuki hayabusa gsx1300R 2010
The 2010 Suzuki Hayabusa GSX1300R K10 - Pearl Mirage White Well I saw it coming out of the crate well I was taken back by the new white colour
• Engine crisp loads power and broad torque curve great on mountain twisters
• Clutch and gearbox smooth good feel even if you lassie it seem to do the work for you
• Handling very well Balanced very stable and great feedback feeling at cornering, the rear end strong feel that makes you want to put down the power to the road ,it doesn't feel like a bike or a touring bike a good sports feel
• Braking responsive and strong feel
• Ergonomics nice sport feel without kill your wrists and back and rider leg position nice
• Setting ridder and passenger comfortable but passenger legroom lack of
• Fuel take well shaped gives room for my podgy to fit in
• Storage under seat could do with a little more room
• Bike height great for us old guys not having to kick 6'6''to get the leg over the seat
• Bike Design well the critics said the bike would be out of production in a few years and it was considered to be an ugly bike well 10 years has past by and Suzuki is still selling the Hayabusa
• Build quality very nice finish panels clips nicely together
• Exhaust well fat and long little too fat and to long nice shape need a little trimming down
• Suspension real good sports bike feel
• Tyers BT grips well
• Price is excellent for the performance the you get in a 1340 cc bike that can be a sport bike and a touring bike a bit of both worlds and the performance of the bike would satisfy most sport bike riders without doing any modification and if you wanted to do some touring two up with gear pack it would be a nice ride for both
