Wine is a compliment to good food and visa versa. In traditional wine cultures wine is considered food even as consumption of wine drops in these countries it remains a part of most meals.
In America we've become concerned with "wine and food matching." Rather than really being fun it seems to be another reason to feel anxious about wine, to feel that we can too easily make a mistake.
This page will be added to whenever I run across a fun or unusual wine and food pairing, at home or at a restaurant. Be warned, I like to push the envelope on what goes with what and don't exclude much from consideration.
