I could wax poetic about the glory (and daily temptation) of grabbing a wood-fired bagel and a large cup of Stumptown coffee on my way to the train in the morning, but this week marked my first time dining in for dinner. My friend opted for pasta, but I had to skip over that section because there were just too many appealing pizzas. I had to go with the Southern, a Korean-Italian collision with southern ham thrown in. The sour kimchi, salty ham, gooey mozzarella, crispy spinach, and some serious garlic: it all worked, but still didn&#8217;t weigh down the blistered thin crust.<\/p>\n<p>Admittedly, I don&#8217;t have a lot of experience with ros\u00e9, but since it&#8217;s ubiquitous in articles about springtime beverages, I&#8217;d been on the lookout for an opportunity to try a glass. This particular wine was ultra-refreshing, a blend of merlot and cabernets sauvignon and franc with juicy berry flavors. Ros\u00e9 is also typically known as a food-friendly wine, and it proved to pair well with the punchy pizza toppings.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1461\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1461\" style=\"width: 501px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/hillaryproctor.files.wordpress.com\/2013\/06\/renorose.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/hillaryproctor.files.wordpress.com\/2013\/06\/renorose.jpg\" alt=\"2012 ros\u00e9\" width=\"501\" height=\"501\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1461\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.hillaryproctor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/renorose.jpg 501w, http:\/\/www.hillaryproctor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/renorose-150x150.jpg 150w, http:\/\/www.hillaryproctor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/renorose-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 501px) 100vw, 501px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1461\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Haut-Sarthes 2012 Ros\u00e9 (Bordeaux)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>The details:<\/strong> <em><a href=\"http:\/\/renochicago.com\/\" title=\"Reno Chicago\">Reno<\/a>, 2607 N Milwaukee Ave, Chicago.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why it&#8217;s this week&#8217;s Best Bite: It&#8217;s high time I blogged about Reno, where I&#8217;ve been a frequent customer since they opened in the neighborhood last November.
