WineSense is Cork & Bottle's series of informative wine tastings that started over 4 years ago. They keep each of their seated classes to under 30 people so you can enjoy your wine-tasting with some elbow room; stand-up tastings allow for a few more people to show up, but they never crowd the room. Unless otherwise noted, each tasting is held on Wednesdays at 7:00 and last for about an hour or so. Beginning in mid-February, seated tastings will be held in the store on Perkins Road, and stand-up reception-style tastings will continue be held at The Camelot Club. Cheese and crackers will be served at the tastings unless otherwise noted.
The following is C&B's BATON ROUGE calendar through the first week of March. Look for theSpring schedule to be announced mid-February that will feature in-store seated tastings each and every Wednesday! So get ready Baton Rouge...it's time for some WineSense in 2007! |

Review: Galatoire's Bistro, Baton Rouge

[Editorial]
[Baton Rouge] |
When the famous New Orleans restaurant, Galatoire's, announced shortly after Hurricane Katrina struck that it was opening a restaurant in Baton Rouge, much of New Orleans rose up in anguished protest. To be fair, several New Orleans-based businesses had just announced that they were moving to other, undamaged cities, abandoning the place that had allowed them to grow without a second glance. (Ruth's Chris Steak House, we're looking at you.) It was painful to think that a New Orleans icon like Galatoire's might be joining them.
Then the owners made it clear that they had been planning a Baton Rouge restaurant for some time, and that they were definitely going to re-open their French Quarter restaurant as soon as possible. (It's open now.) Tempers died down, and Baton Rouge inhabitants, both previous and post-Katrina, started simply looking forward to that highest form of ordinary entertainment for south Louisiana: a new restaurant to try. |
