Terranea Resort, Palos Verdes with Executive Chef Andrew Vaughan Part 2

“Like so many other adventures, New Zealand Wine Navigator began with friends, family, and a few excellent bottles of wine. Graham Painter, Founder and CEO, was visiting family in the States and was sent out to select a nice wine for dinner. Wanting to show off some of the outstanding wines New Zealand has to offer, he went from one wine store to the next searching for something special; beyond the big-name Sauvignon Blancs. A deep, rich Pinot Noir or Syrah perhaps. How about a superb Riesling...? Surely, with the breadth of fine wines being produced in New Zealand, there was something special to be found. That fruitless search inspired a mission. Today, New Zealand Wine Navigator is America’s #1 New Zealand wine specialist, satisfying wine lovers across the United States with special, hard-to-find New Zealand wines from small, family estate producers. They ship the wine to a temperature-controlled warehouse in California ready for quick and cost-effective delivery to your home or office.” David Harlow, West Regional Manager for NZ Wine Navigator, joins us to uncork all that is NZ Wine Navigator.“Mushrooms are nature’s hidden treasure: always in season and grown year-round. Long celebrated as a superfood source of powerful nutrients, fresh mushrooms are a healthy addition to your plate. Mushrooms provide many of the same nutritional benefits as vegetables, as well as attributes commonly found in meat, beans and grains. Mushrooms can help fulfill some of the leading recommendations for a healthy diet from the 2020-2025 Dietary Guidelines for Americans. The most popular mushroom variety grown in the U.S. is white button, followed by crimini (brown or baby bellas), portabellas, enoki, oyster, maitake and shiitake. Today, mushrooms are commercially produced in virtually every state. The Mushroom Council® plays an important role in the national promotion of those fresh mushrooms.” Cristie Mather of The Mushroom Council® is our well-informed guide to all the goodness of mushrooms.

“There’s just something about new school supplies that helps kids get excited about learning, and Huntington Meats is again doing their part to make sure all children experience that excitement as the new school year kicks off in August. Huntington Meats' sister shop Farmers Market Poultry will also be participating in the drive. For the second year in a row, the two shops offering quality meat and poultry products are coming together to participate in their Back-to-School School Supply Drive to take place the entire month of July. The goal is to collect enough supplies for 350 kids for distribution to the Union Rescue Mission in Downtown LA. Customers that visit either of the shops and donate new, unused school supplies valued at $10 or more will receive a complimentary pound of ground beef or homemade sausages from Huntington Meats, or a pound of ground chicken or ground turkey from Farmers Market Poultry.” Jim Cascone, the maestro of sausage, beef, pork and chicken, joins us with all the details about how our listeners can help.“Tiki bar fans, rejoice — and grab a place at Strong Water Anaheim.
