Vin 205 Wine Bar Winston Salem
We visited Vin 205 yesterday. What a pleasant surprise. There was a large selection of wines by the
glass, a nice selection of draft beer and bottled beer. The menu is diverse ranging from appetizers to
small plates to entrees. Prices are reasonable. Overall they provide an experience that is new and very enjoyable. If in Winston you should make a visit a must!

Hound s help needed spicy ranch dressing
Have searched the board and cannot find a good spicy ranch dressing. A local restaurant just adds
a hot sauce to their ranch. Would like to find something more tangy and tantalizing any ideas?
Best Eats in WS! & ?
Check out the District Roof top bar and grill that opened this week
The district roof top bar and grill winston salem
Stopped in for lunch. They have just opened this week. The lunch menu was varied with reasonable
prices. We opted to sit downstairs. Later we were given a walk through by the owners. The bar and
rooftop bar add to Winston Salem something unique. Did scan the dinner menu and wine list. Both
are varied and reasonably priced. The food was excellent at lunch. Will go back and try them for dinner soon.
Cinque Terre
We will be staying in the Cinque Terre in October would appreciate any and all recommendations for
all meals, We will be staying in Corniglia for three nights.
NY Kosher Deli Potato Salad
We have been researching NY deli style potato salad. There was a thread on Chowhound, and some
wrote that a lot of the deli's used Sally Sherman potato salad. No one seemed to be able to duplicate that recipe. Do any hounds know how to duplicate it. If not where can someone from
North Carolina buy Sally Sherman potato salad?
Eye of Round steak?
We buy eye of the round at Costco. Cut into individual steaks and vacuum pack. We thaw two steaks at a time. When thawed we marinate them in bourbon till the come to room temp.
We coat with Ms Dash extra spicy and grill. Can then be sliced thin and served over greens with a good vinagarette
Graduation in Winston-Salem
there is a hole in wall mexican on University Parkway called el sombrero, there are several
la carretas located around town. A little more upscale would be MIlners on Stratford Rd.
For different Q there is Bibbs downtown they have a variety of smoked meats. Another hole in
the wall mexican is la botano on Hanes Mill road in front of Wal Mart. Another suggestion would be Bleu located behind Village Tavern. Go Deacs

Appetizer Suggestions?
an easy appetizer: 8 ounces of cream cheese allowed to soften. cover with a can of back fin crab
meat. Then cover with cocktail sauce. We use horseradish, lime juice, ketchup, Worcestershire
sauce. We go heavy on the horseradish. Serve chilled with Carrs crackers. Never any left
Camping meal ideas for large group needed.
what about pork tenderloin. costco has a reasonable prlce. take the juice of six limes, the zest of a lime, a couple of jalapenos diced, marinate for an hour then grill. slice and serve with
grilled new potatoes that have been sliced and grilled.
Too much?
Bison the reason not to eat beef!! Bison flank steak marinated in good bourbon, broiled medium rare sliced thin over mixed greens with crumbled blue cheese YEA!!!

Pound of ground lamb--what to do
Here is a recipe from our local lamb farm. We have tried it and it is great. 1Lb ground lamb, 1 medium onion, 1/4 bunch fresh italian parsley, 1 1/2 tbsp olive oil, 1/3-1/2 cup fresh bread crumbs
salt, black pepper, 1/4 tsp all spice. Chop onion and parsley together in food processor-add ground lamb together with rest of ingredients. Mix well. Shape into long "hot dog shape" burgers
(1"X5") Grill, serve in pocket pita halves with yogurt sauce and cut up tomatoes
Yogurt Sauce:
Cucumber, yogurt, garlic mint olive oil salt
Tried this and the crowd went wild forgot serve with a cold beer
Mackerel?
There are several species of mackerel. In Hawaii they have ONO which on the east coast is
Whaoo. It is one of the best fish in the sea. The tail can be divided into small pieces that are outstanding fried or broiled. Here on the coast of North Carolina we take filets and brush them with olive oil, oregano, lemon and place on the grill. It usually does not make it to the table as our teenage children eat it as it comes off the grill. Hope you can find some!!!
