07 Apr Please The Palate’s April 2017 Newsletter

2017 is flying by! How did it get to be April already?!?! As this newsletter arrives in your inbox, I am traveling in France and attending the Decouvertes du Rhone, a week long festival to explore the vineyards of the Rhone Valley. I look forward to sharing experiences from my trip in future stories but for now, you can check out photos on Instagram. One of the new things that I started for 2017 is the Please The Palate “Pick of the Week”. With all of the eating, drinking and traveling at Please The Palate, each week I will share the one item that stood out, be it food, wine, cocktails or something special. I hope you enjoy my “pick of the week” and find your own each week as well.
