I know what you’re thinking “uhhh! not another blog about food, wine & restaurants, etc”. That has been my reluctance to do a blog. But after being in wine and spirts industry for over 17 years, I figure “hey, why not an insiders perspective”. So in addition to food, wine & the Phoenix dining scene I will also feature some current events & something new I’ve been involved in of the last few years… film producing. So come and join the party, agree or disagree with me, let me know what you think.
Cheers,
Sandy
