We are trying very hard not to read too much news instead just focusing on our usual daily routines. We try to eat healthy and cook as much as we can. Hopefully, sharing what we eat during a day with you would bring you a little joy.

Brunch :

• Tomato and Mushroom Scrambled Eggs

• Cream Corn Soup

Wine of my Choice:

• Buchegger ‘Ried Geppling’ Grüner Veltliner, Kremstal, Austria 🇦🇹 2017

Grüner Veltliner is the most planted white grape variety in Austria and is considered Austria’s the signature grape. Buchegger, a six generation winemaking family, is located in Kremstal, a fantastic wine region adjacent to Wachau. Sourced from Ried Geppling, one of the best vineyards in the region, this sustainablely farmed Grüner Veltliner is robust and jazzy. It has a round mouthfeel with seductive aromas of honey, Meyer lemon, Bartlett pear and a hint of yeastiness.

Pairing with tomato and mushroom scrambled eggs and cream corn soup, this Grüner Veltliner complements the flavors of these two dishes so well and takes them to the next level. It’s truly a wonderful surprise! Another glass perhaps?

Afternoon Tea:

• Matcha Red Bean Cup Cake

• Americano

Dinner:

• Make Your Own Surf and Turf Tacos

• Tequila Sunrise 

Chef wanted to have a cocktail made of tequila, so I did some quick research and the Tequila Sunrise caught my eyes. So, there you have it. We are drinking Tequila Sunrise to pair with the surf and turf tacos tonight. 

Tequila Sunrise is a classic and beautiful cocktail. It only requires only 3 ingredients: Tequila, orange juice and grenadine. It’s refreshing, colorful and somewhat festive. During this difficult time, I think anything that can cheer us works. Without doubt, this cocktail goes well with any kind of Mexican cuisine including tacos.

早午餐：

• 蕃茄蘑菇炒蛋

• 玉米濃湯

餐酒：

• Buchegger ‘Ried Geppling’ Grüner Veltliner, Kremstal Austria  🇦🇹 2017

最期待週末的早午餐，除了有我最喜歡的蛋料理之外，還可以正大光明的在大白天開喝，是再棒也不過的事了！

談到奧地利的白葡萄酒，除了麗絲伶 (Riesling) 之外，還有一個最具代表性的白葡萄品種，你不能不知道，那就是綠維特利納 (Grüner Veltliner)。綠維特利納可算是奧地利葡萄酒中的第一種子選手，不僅其種植面積最廣，在國際間也享譽盛名。綠維特利納以其爽脆的酸度聞名，剛釀好的新酒常有柑橘或桃子的香氣; 白胡椒粒也是綠維特利納的特色風味之一。隨著陳釀的時間拉長，蜂蜜的甜香、烘烤堅果的香氣會慢慢的展現，酒的風韻開始改變。

Buchegger 酒莊座落於維也納西北方的 Kremstal 產區，由於其地形、氣候及土壤組成等的風土條件影響下，非常適合種植麗絲伶及綠維特利納。在 Kremstal 產區釀出來的綠維特利納大多果香濃郁，酒體豐厚而口感圓潤。Buchegger 酒莊六代相傳，目前採用永續農耕法經營期他們的葡萄園。

這瓶來自Ried Geppling單一田園的綠維特利納入口後口感圓潤，蜂蜜、檸檬、西洋梨的香氣活潑而奔放，帶勁的酸度還夾雜著淡淡的酵母味及白胡椒的辛香，配著番茄蘑菇炒蛋與玉米濃湯，不但提出蛋與玉米的鮮甜，與番茄、蘑菇的配對更是拍案叫絕，令人讚嘆著怎麼會有這麼搭得餐酒搭配？還沒有喝過綠維特利納的朋友們，一定要試試！

下午茶套餐：

• 抹茶紅豆杯子蛋糕

• 美式咖啡

有一種搭配，是經典中的經典，永不膩口的組合。抹茶配紅豆，就是這種！

晚餐：

• 自助式墨西哥玉米餅，海陸雙拼套餐

雞尾酒：

• 龍舌蘭日出
  

大廚說，今晚想喝龍舌蘭調酒搭配墨西哥玉米餅。既然如此，馬上找了一款合適的龍舌蘭調酒來搭配今日的晚餐。

這款龍舌蘭日出，不僅賞心悅目而且簡單好做，只要有龍舌蘭酒、柳橙汁及紅石榴糖漿就能調製出龍舌蘭日出。龍舌蘭酒的獨特香氣是這款調酒的最大特色，加上橙汁及紅石榴糖漿增甜綴色，喝來順口酸甜，沁心透涼。搭配墨西哥玉米餅一起食用，彷彿置身墨西哥，瞬間暢快歡樂。
