WELL
WELL MARCIE MANAGED TO MAKE IT TO VYRON RONDO IN CHESHIRE
WITHOUT ME TODAY, SO I GUESS I
DON'T HAVE TO BUY HER LUNCH.
MAYBE SERVING YOU UP A COSMO. IF
YOU DO GO, THOUGH, MIGHT BE
THERE. BUT SHE'S THERE FOR WINE
WEDNESDAY. AND NO ONE HAS
FORGOTTEN ABOUT YOU LOSING THE
BET THAT YOU MADE YESTERDAY.
MARS OKAY. OH YEAH. NO 100% YOU
GUYS AND SPEAKING OF NOT
FORGETTING THINGS THE LAST TIME
I WAS HERE I REMEMBER COMING
HERE DON'T EARLY, REMEMBER
LIVING HERE, AND THAT'S PARTLY
BECAUSE THESE GUYS BEHIND THE
BAR THEY MAKE SOME MEAN
COCKTAILS. YOU ALSO HAVE A
FABULOUS WINE LIST. WE ARE GOING
TO START WITH A LITTLE FUN
PAIRING. RIGHT? SO WE'VE GOT
CHEF TOMMY, WE'VE GOT DAN HERE.
LET'S START WITH THE PAIRING
THAT WE'RE GOING TO BE TALKING
ABOUT. SO WE'VE GOT THE HALIBUT.
WE'VE GOT THE WINE. YOU WANT TO
KICK OFF OF THAT? ALRIGHT
ALRIGHT, CRAB. WALK OVER YOU,
DAN. OKAY WHAT DO WE GOT? THIS
IS JUST AN ATLANTIC HALIBUT PAN
SEARED WITH SOME SAFFRON RISOTTO
, SPRING ASPARAGUS, WILD SPINACH
, AND THEN IT'S GARNISHED ON TOP
OF SOME MICROGREENS. NICE VOICE.
HAS ANYBODY EVER TOLD YOU THAT?
LIKE YOU COULD DEFINITELY DO
PODCASTING. LOOK INTO THAT. COME
OUT OF THE ROOM TALKING LIKE
THAT, LIKE MY MOM. I DON'T KNOW.
COME ON. I FEEL LIKE THIS IS
LOOKS INCREDIBLE. WHAT KIND OF
RISOTTO DID YOU SAY? SAFFRON OH,
SOME ENGLISH PEAS. AND THEN A
LITTLE BIT. YOU KNOW WHAT? THIS
LOOKS LIGHT SPRINGY. ARE WE
HAPPY WITH THE PAIRING THAT WE
HAVE HERE? THIS WELL, I TRUST
DAN, LOOK AT HIM. HOW COULD YOU
NOT TRUST THIS FACE? WHAT ARE WE
LOOKING FOR? THE NOTES IN THIS
WINE? WHAT WOULD I TASTE WHEN I
HAVE THAT REASON I SPECIFICALLY
PICKED THIS ONE IS BECAUSE THE
REGION THAT COMES FROM SANTA
RINI AND GREECE IS ACTUALLY THE
ISLANDS FORMED FROM LAVA ROCK.
AND WHEN WE'RE TALKING WINDS,
YOU GET FLAVOR FROM THE SOIL
COMING OUT OF WHEREVER IT'S
GROWN. UM SO YOU GET SOME SLATE
SOME MINERALITY THAT GOES WELL
WITH SOME OF THE BUTTERY NOTES
AND ALSO JUST THE LIGHT
FLAKINESS OF THE FISH THAT WORKS
WELL HERE AND REFRESHING LIGHT
MAKING MY MOUTH WATER. YES AND
YOU ALWAYS WANT SOMETHING.
OBVIOUSLY, WHEN PEOPLE SAY THAT
PAIR YOU DON'T WANT ONE TO
OVERPOWER THE OTHER. YOU WANT TO
WORK WELL IN HARMONY, WHICH I
FEEL LIKE THESE GUYS. IT'S JUST
HARMONIOUS. AM I RIGHT? MUCH, SO
YOU CAN'T WAIT TO GET OFF HERE.
ALL RIGHT. FOR ANYBODY WHO
HASN'T VISITED VYRON RONDO'S
BEFORE WHICH STOPPED LIVING
UNDER IRAQ EXPLAIN A LITTLE BIT
ABOUT WHAT THE VIBE IS LIKE,
WHAT THE SCENE IS LIKE. WE'RE
HERE TO THROW A PARTY EVERY
NIGHT. IT'S EXACTLY WHAT IT IS.
WE HAVE THE WONDERFUL BIG
FIREPLACE. WE JUST LAST WEEK
OPENED OUR PATIO BAR PATIO BAR
IS 30 SEATS, GIVE OR TAKE,
DEPENDING ON THE DAY. UM FALL
SERVICE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE, BUT
IT'S UM, HAPPY HOUR STARTS OFF A
GREAT CROWD, AND IT USUALLY
DOESN'T DIE DOWN UNTIL CLOSE TO
IN THE KITCHEN. HAPPY HOUR DOES
NOT LAST AN HOUR. I KNOW THAT.
YOU KNOW THAT. WHAT I THINK I
LOVE MOST ABOUT THIS SPOT
BESIDES THE FOOD, THE INCREDIBLE
SERVICE AND THE DRINKS IS THE
CROWD THAT YOU GET BECAUSE
THERE'S EVERYONE FROM 90 YEARS
OLD DOWN TO NINE. SO YOU GET A
LITTLE BIT OF EVERYTHING. THIS
BAR IS AN INCREDIBLE SOCIAL
SPACE. REALLY YOU MAKE FRIENDS,
THE WOMAN THAT DESIGNED THE BAR
WHEN THEY WERE DOING THEIR
INNOVATION WANTED RECTANGLE SO
THAT YOU CAN SEE PEOPLE FROM
ACROSS THE BAR. THAT WAS THAT
WAS KIND OF THE POINT BEHIND IT.
AND YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. WE
HAVE, UM YEAH, I GOT EVERYTHING
ALMOST TOO EASY TO SEE THE
BARTENDER. AND THAT'S WHY I
THINK I GOT IN THE PREDICAMENT.
I WAS IN 100% YOU GUYS ARE TOO
EASY TO FLAG DOWN. MIGHT NOT
LAST AN HOUR FOR YOU RIGHT? IT
USUALLY LASTS FOR EVERYONE ELSE
. EVERYBODY ELSE. IT'S YES. I
LOVE IT. ALL RIGHT. I DON'T
NORMALLY DRINK ALONE. NO OPENING
AND THE YES, THERE IT IS. ALL
RIGHT, I'LL DO A LITTLE. SNIFF
AND SWITCH. OH, THAT'S DELICIOUS
, VERY FRUIT FORWARD, CITRUSY.
INTERESTING, BUT YOU ALSO GET A
LITTLE BIT OF LIGHT. YOU ALSO
DIDN'T LIKE A LITTLE BUTTERY TO
MINERAL. YOU'RE LIKE NO, NOT AT
ALL. BUT THAT IS DELICIOUS. WHAT
IS YOUR FAVORITE PART ABOUT
BEING A PART OF THE BYRON RONDO
FAMILY? IT'S JUST, UM IT'S A
GREAT PLACE TO WORK AND LIKE,

SMILE ON YOUR FACE. AND THAT
