It’s been several years since we visited the largest privately owned house in America, nestled into the hillsides of Asheville, N.C., with expansive views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and a combination of history, relaxation and outdoor activity that makes for a splendid getaway. I am talking, of course, about the Biltmore Estate. George W.

Recently out shopping for furniture near our new home in North Carolina, we followed a recommendation and stopped in at Assaggio’s Italian Restaurant, in Raleigh, N.C., for a late lunch. The restaurant is located at the back of a small plaza, tucked away a little, so be careful not to miss it. It was pretty Continue reading Dining Review – Assaggio’s Italian Restaurant in Raleigh, N.C. https://www.redwineplease.com/dining-review-stellinos-italiano-in-cary-n-c/ 
We’ve just moved to Morrisville, N.C., and are starting to get out and sample the local restaurant scene. As such, we’ll likely be reviewing quite a few in the near future. In this article we’ll take a look at Stellino’s Italiano, which we ate dinner at last week after a long day of unpacking, and Continue reading Dining Review – Stellino’s Italiano in Cary, N.C. https://www.redwineplease.com/restaurant-review-matadora-a-bit-of-spain-in-woburn-massachusetts/ 
On a recent business trip I found myself dining at Matadora, inside the Hilton Boston/Woburn Hotel in Woburn, MA. This is a Spanish Tapas restaurant with a comfortable, open and modern vibe. The night I was there a solo performer playing guitar and singing Spanish songs added to the authentic atmosphere. The restaurant is located Continue reading Restaurant Review – Matadora: A Bit of Spain in Woburn, Massachusetts https://www.redwineplease.com/restaurant-reviews-in-and-around-chatham-ma-february-2018/ 
On a recent getaway to Cape Cod, one of our traditional stomping grounds, we went to a few restaurants in and around Chatham, Massachusetts. The experiences were quite different, some good and some bad. Here we’ll give you a quick review for your consideration, if you should find yourself in the area and in need Continue reading Restaurant Reviews: In and Around Chatham, MA – February 2018 https://www.redwineplease.com/dining-review-basta-on-broad-in-cranston-ri/ 
Sometimes in life you look back on something and wonder, “why did it take us so long to do this?” It could be a simple thing around the house, a minor, inexpensive thing that makes life easier, or a place you’ve always meant to go but just didn’t seem to get to. Here we’ll cross Continue reading Dining Review – Basta on Broad in Cranston, RI https://www.redwineplease.com/dining-review-cucina-rustica-in-cranston-ri/ 
We haven’t done a dining review in a while. That’s a little unusual, as we haven’t stopped eating. It’s just that there has been so much wine to talk about. So let’s take a little time and catch up on a restaurant review or two. We’ll start with Cucina Rustica on Atwood Avenue in Cranston, Continue reading Dining Review – Cucina Rustica in Cranston, RI https://www.redwineplease.com/dining-review-baba-sushi-hot-pot-in-sturbridge-ma/ 
A really good sushi restaurant is hard to find. In Worcester, MA, Baba Sushi has gained a reputation for being just that. We’re not in Worcester very often, but we are frequently in Sturbridge, MA, and it so happens that Baba Sushi opened a second location in this quaint town. This could turn out to Continue reading Dining Review – Baba Sushi & Hot Pot in Sturbridge, MA https://www.redwineplease.com/dining-review-saffron-in-morrisville-nc/ 
Over the Christmas holiday we found ourselves in Morrisville, NC, visiting family. One of our forays out for food brought us to Saffron, in a strip mall near a Harris Teeter supermarket. The setting screamed strip mall food, and the inside really didn’t scream anything differently, but the proof is what’s on the plate. The Continue reading Dining Review – Saffron in Morrisville, NC https://www.redwineplease.com/dining-review-morimoto-asia-at-walt-disney-world-in-orlando/ 
On our trip to Walt Disney World in Orlando, FL a few months ago we were excited to have reservations at the new Morimoto Asia restaurant. Having watched Morimoto over the years on Iron Chef, we expected great things. There were six of us, all of whom love Asian food. We arrived in Orlando late Continue reading Dining Review – Morimoto Asia at Walt Disney World in Orlando |
