Listening to Adrian Miller, author of Soul Food: The Surprising Story of an American Cuisine, One Plate at a Time, and Imar Hutchins, owner of the Florida Avenue Grill in Washington, D.C. (which calls itself the "Oldest soul food restaurant in the world"), on Kojo Nnamdi's WAMU
Although we must stay home during the COVID-19 pandemic, we can still eat and drink well and in these uncertain times it is crucial that we support our locally owned and operated independent restaurants and small businesses.
We have always supported independent, family owned wine producers. In these difficult times, they also require our support more than ever.
Several times a month, I will send out offers featuring small, independent wine producers. Orders for delivery, shipping & pickup will be administered through Prestige Wines & Spirits. Orders must be placed by Friday at 5pm for delivery or pickup the following week.
Prestige is offering free delivery for orders over $200 within the city limits, Sherwood Park and St.Albert. For orders less than $200, a $15 delivery charge will apply. Subject to weather, Prestige will also ship anywhere in the province (cost based on quantity and location).
In order to keep customers, staff and community as safe as possible, Prestige is open limited hours from 11am-7pm daily and all customers must wear a mask and sanitize their hands upon entering the store.
Please consider ordering a 6pk of wine (or two) and dinner from one of the many independent restaurants in the city.
Prestige also has an extensive selection of spirits, craft gin, single malt whiskies and craft beer. Please inquire.
Together we will get through this. Stay home, stay safe and stay strong.
To be added to our mailing list for offers and online events, please email me at g@vinomaniawines.com.
Thank you for your continued support during these uncertain times.
