From The Bloomfield Carriage House Restaurant

Well, here we are again, but the sun is setting and the sky is kissed in pink hues. Seriously, I am not kidding. A gentle breeze off Lake Ontario is meandering across Prince Edward County, bringing with it a touch of coolness to an otherwise stinking hot day. My tummy is grumbling and my fancy turns to food.

Time to rev up the truck -- yes, the same one I took on the Horn Trip last time. It’s a metallic tungsten grey SUV. Let’s see if I can pair some of those wines I tasted with local fare. The County is known for a celebration of regional cuisine, featuring regional chefs, local growers, and wonderful wines. I think I’m going to do a progressive dinner tonight across The County.
