3 PM ET
Pierre and Jacques Haeringer on Alsace, cooking classes, summer dishes and of course wine. This poem says it all:
Know you the land where the vines and the vineyards
Mingle together with wavering hops
Know you a place where the elegant foie gras
is eaten along with peasant pork chops?
Where savoury kraut and tart of the onion
Is heaped on your plate with quiche of Lorraine
And you drink and you eat till your belly is bursting
And then in the evening you do it again?
--T.A. Layton
