Mignonette, lemon. Happy hour, each $2 NZD
Oyster & Chop, Auckland NZ
Hmm, I liked that these oysters were super affordable during happy hour, but they didn’t seem very fresh or tasty. They seemed like they could have been previously frozen which is never a good thing. Oh well, you win some you lose some.
Elephant Hill Syrah ($13 NZD) and Mills Reef Cabernet blend ($12 NZD).
Green beans, potatoes, couscous, roll, cheese and crackers, berry dessert, red wine. Complimentary
San Francisco (SFO) to Auckland (AKL), Air New Zealand
This was ok. There was certainly a lot of food though (they really want you to fall asleep from a food coma). The beef casserole was decent, the potatoes were sad, I didn’t really like the couscous or dessert, but they were liberal with the wine so I was cool. 🙂
Shaved parmesan, mint basil pesto, creme fraiche. $15
Vino Volo, San Francisco International Airport (SFO)
These meatballs were gross. They had a weird squishy texture and a weird flavor. I usually love lamb, but not these!
California Kings red wine flight. $14
Coria Estates, Salem OR
This is what we drank during the 2017 solar eclipse under totality. It was great spending the morning at Coria Estates waiting for the eclipse. It was kinda cold, but we cuddled under a blanket to stay warm and drank plenty of mimosas and wine. 🙂
Meatballs in chicken broth, pepe pasta, spinach, onions, carrot. Glass of red wine. Complimentary
American Airlines Admirals Club, San Francisco International Airport (SFO)
This soup was ok. It was pretty much standard airline lounge fare so the bar isn’t set very high. It’s definitely better with a glass of wine. 🙂
