Beer or Wine
I have found in my business travels that certain Chardonnays pop up in the better off-the-main-drag restaurants, e.g., Cupcake, Chateau St. Jean, Chateau Ste. Michelle, J. Lohr. However, the selection of Malbecs from Argentina, a distinctive red wine, still lacks quality. If you can get Portrillo, or Gascon, you will be very happy. The only beer I drink is the world's oldest--Pilsner Urquel from the Czech Republic, now available in many major markets and some restaurants.
